אעלילות. כמו סבות:
1WANTON. The word alilot (wanton) means a cause.57 to the word illah (cause). He renders alilot devarim as “a cause of words.” In other words, he states the reason he wants to divorce her.
בדברים. הן אמת או שקר:
2CHARGES. Whether true or false.58 as false charges. Hence I.E.’s comment.
גבתולים. לשון רבים ולא יתפרדו וכן בחרות וזקונים ועלומים:
3VIRGINITY. The word betulim (virginity) is a plural. It never comes in the singular. The same applies to bacharut (youth), zekunim (old age), alumim (youth).
