Rav Judah said: Women who were kidnapped by kidnappers are permitted to their husbands. The rabbis said to Rav Judah: But they are bringing them their bread? [They do this] out of fear. But they are handing them their arrows? [They do this also] out of fear. It is certain, that if the captors let them go and they come back of their own free will, they are prohibited.
