Deuteronomy 24:5

When a man hath taken a new wife, when he has but recently been married, he shall not go out to war, not even be mustered, as one who was merely engaged to be married, Deuteronomy 20:7, neither shall he be charged with any business, with any public burden or political business; but he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he hath taken, Proverbs 5:18, instead of burdening her with care and anxiety through the exposure of his life or through his continual absence from home on civil business.
