Contextual Overview
3“When a woman in her father’s house during her youth makes a vow to the Lord or puts herself under an obligation, 4and her father hears about her vow or the obligation she put herself under, and he says nothing to her, all her vows and every obligation she put herself under are binding. 5But if her father prohibits her on the day he hears about it, none of her vows and none of the obligations she put herself under are binding. The Lord will release her because her father has prohibited her. 6“If a woman marries while her vows or the rash commitment she herself made are binding, 7and her husband hears about it and says nothing to her when he finds out, her vows are binding, and the obligations she put herself under are binding. 8But if her husband prohibits her when he hears about it, he will cancel her vow that is binding or the rash commitment she herself made, and the Lord will release her. 9“Every vow a widow or divorced woman puts herself under is binding on her. 10“If a woman in her husband’s house has made a vow or put herself under an obligation with an oath, 11and her husband hears about it, says nothing to her, and does not prohibit her, all her vows are binding, and every obligation she put herself under is binding. 12But if her husband cancels them on the day he hears about it, nothing that came from her lips, whether her vows or her obligation, is binding. Her husband has canceled them, and the Lord will release her.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And if she had at all an husband with whom she vowed,.... Or "when her vows were upon her" w, was either betrothed or married to a man:
or uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith 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.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Rather, And if she shall at all be an husbandâs, and her vows shall be upon her, or a rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul, etc. The âat allâ intimates that the case of a girl betrothed but not yet actually married is here especially contemplated. After betrothal, a woman continued to reside, until the period of her marriage arrived, in her fatherâs house; but her property was from that time forward vested in her husband, and she was so far regarded as personally his, that an act of faithlessness to him was, like adultery, punishable with death Deuteronomy 22:23-24. Hence, his right to control her vows even before he actually took her home as his wife.
