And this is why it's important to bring the actual words of the verse to show that it
is rational. Rational means with reasons. Here are the reasons:
- The woman shaves *herself*
- The woman trims *herself*
- The woman strips *herself*
- The woman *herself* stays in the home for a month
Consent, consent, consent, consent... 4 times and is given a whole month to change her mind.
Add to that ths idea of legal escape. She comes from a foreign nation, that means everyone agrees, the verse applies. She has a whole month to escape and be free.
