21:13
יג וְהוּא, אִשָּׁה בִבְתוּלֶיהָ יִקָּח The question of the week is: There is a
Mitzvah for the Kohen Gadol to only marry a Bisulah as the Posuk mentions.
The Rambam in Sefer Hamitzvois Mitzvois
Asei 38 writes, not only is it a Lav for a Kohen Gadol to marry someone he is
not allowed to marry, but it is a separate Mitzvas Asei to marry a Bisulah.
The Rambam also has another Shittah and that is that
a Kohen Gadol can’t be married to more than one woman. This is because on Yom
Kippur it says, V’chipeir B’adoi uv’ad Bai’soi, where Bai’soi is in the
singular so that teaches that he is not permitted to be married to two wives.
If so, a person who becomes a Kohen Gadol in all
likelihood is already married because he inherited the Kehuna Gedoila from his
father. So he is not a youngster of 18. He now has a Mitzvois Asei according to
the Rambam of getting married to a Bisulah. The problem is he can’t marry
someone else because he is not permitted to have two wives. What is he supposed
to do? Does every Kohen Gadol according to the Rambam have to divorce the wife
he was previously married to in order to marry a Bisulah?
