John Gill Commentary Numbers 30:6

"And if she be [married] to a husband, while her vows are upon her, or the rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul," — Numbers 30:6 (ASV)

And if she had at all an husband with whom she vowed
Or "when her vows were upon her" ^F23 , was either betrothed or married to a man:

or uttered anything out of her lips, with which she bound her soul ;
uttered anything, either with or without premeditation, either with thought and deliberation, or rashly and imprudently, as the word signifies, yet in such a manner that it was binding upon her.
