10:4 The Pharisees quoted what Moses permitted. There was much debate among rabbis as to what constituted the “something wrong” (see Deut 24:1) that made divorce permissible. Rabbi Shammai allowed divorce only on the basis of sexual immorality. Rabbi Hillel permitted divorce even if a woman burned her husband’s dinner or was less attractive than someone else (Mishnah Gittin 9:10).
