Well that brings up a very interesting angle doesn't it? When a person possesses what he desires, he loses the desire. If the wife is an object of desire, rather than beloved for who she is herself, then that desire can evaporate.

What I find interesting is that this section focuses on desiring the wife of another (as a use case example as you pointed out) but then next focuses on a divorce use case in which the man does not desire his own wife (assuming Dt. 24 as the background).
