Numbers Chapter 30

Numbers 30:1
30:1 And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes {a} concerning
     the children of Israel, saying, This [is] the thing which
     the LORD hath commanded.

     (a) Because they might declare them to the Israelites.

Numbers 30:4
30:4 And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she
     hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his {b}
     peace at her: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond
     wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.

     (b) For in so doing he approves her.

Numbers 30:5
30:5 But if her {c} father disallow her in the day that he
     heareth; not any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she
     hath bound her soul, shall stand: and the LORD shall
     forgive her, because her father disallowed her.

     (c) By not approving or consenting to her vow.

Numbers 30:6
30:6 And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or {d}
     uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her
     soul;

     (d) Either by oath, or solemn promise.

Numbers 30:8
30:8 But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard
     [it]; then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that
     which she uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her
     {e} soul, of none effect: and the LORD shall forgive her.

     (e) For she is in subjection to her husband, and can
         perform nothing without his consent.

Numbers 30:9
30:9 But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced,
     wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand {f}
     against her.

     (f) For they are not under the authority of the man.

Numbers 30:10
30:10 And if she vowed in her husband's {h} house, or bound her
      soul by a bond with an oath;

      (h) Her husband being alive.

Numbers 30:13
30:13 Every vow, and every binding oath to {h} afflict the soul,
      her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it
      void.

      (h) To mortify herself by abstinence or other bodily
          exercise.

Numbers 30:14
30:14 But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from
      {i} day to day; then he establisheth all her vows, or all
      her bonds, which [are] upon her: he confirmeth them,
      because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard
      [them].

      (i) And warn her not the same day that he hears it, as in
          Numbers 30:8.

Numbers 30:15
30:15 But if he shall any ways {k} make them void after that he
      hath heard [them]; then he shall bear her iniquity.

      (k) Not the same day he heard them, but some day after,
          the sin will be imputed to him and not to her.
