Not debating, just trying to determine your sense of the passage. What do you think it refers to? How would a Judean convert understand him? How would a Greek convert understand him? And can he own an AR-15?

Assuming the divorce is post conversion and the guy is not already ordained -
Wife alive and guy NOT remarried - husband of 1 wife --> qualified
Wife alive and guy IS remarried - husband of 2 wives --> disqualified
Wife dead and guy NOT remarried - not a husband --> ???
Wife dead and guy IS remarried - husband of 1 wife --> qualified
If the divorce is pre conversion - it is of no effect --> qualified
