Must I pay alimony to my divorced wife, taking into consideration that she was the one who initiated the divorce, left the home, and traveled with our children without my permission?

The husband is advised to reconsider his divorced wife if there is hope for a righteous life together. Otherwise, he should treat her kindly to alleviate the pain of separation for their children. Financial support for the revocably divorced wife is obligatory during her waiting period, unless she waives it. Financial support for the children is obligatory upon the well-to-do father if they do not have their own wealth.
