Is It Legal for a Man to Divorce His Wife for Any Reason?

In Deuteronomy 24, a man can divorce his wife for any and every reason. By Jesus' day, the debate was over how to interpret that line if he finds something indecent. There were two schools of thought from two of the most famous rabbis right before Jesus era. The school of Halal literally said quote, he may divorce her even if she spoiled a dish for him. It goes against the grain of our late modern egalitarian sensibilities.
