Forcing a Divorce Document on a Recalcitrant Wife
Question
Why don’t they instruct a man whose wife refuses to accept a get—not because she genuinely wants marital reconciliation, but for the other reasons that are common today—to place the get in her hand?
Answer
Because of the ban of Rabbeinu Gershom against divorcing a woman against her will.
