שהזהיר הכהן שלא יקח גרושה, והוא אמרו ואשה גרושה מאישה לא יקחו. וכל זמן שיבא עליה חייב מלקות. (שם, שם):

**Sefaria Edition 2021, Translated by Rabbi Francis Nataf:**
That He prohibited a priest - that he not take (marry) a divorcee. And that is His saying, "and they shall not take a woman divorced from her husband" (Leviticus 21:7). And each time he has sexual relations with her, he is lashed. (See Parashat Emor; Mishneh Torah, Forbidden Intercourse 17-19.)
