Deuteronomy 12:20

12:20 When the Lord your God extends your borders as he said he would do and you say, “I want to eat meat just as I please,” 1  you may do so as you wish. 2 

Deuteronomy 24:1

Context

24:1 If a man marries a woman and she does not please him because he has found something offensive 3  in her, then he may draw up a divorce document, give it to her, and evict her from his house.

1 tn Heb “for my soul desires to eat meat.”

2 tn Heb “according to all the desire of your soul you may eat meat.”

3 tn Heb “nakedness of a thing.” The Hebrew phrase עֶרְוַת דָּבָר (’ervat davar) refers here to some gross sexual impropriety (see note on “indecent” in Deut 23:14). Though the term usually has to do only with indecent exposure of the genitals, it can also include such behavior as adultery (cf. Lev 18:6-18; 20:11, 17, 20-21; Ezek 22:10; 23:29; Hos 2:10).
