Deuteronomy 22:29 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Fifty shekels of silver, besides the dowry, as Philo the learned Jew notes, which is here omitted, because that was common and customary, and because it might easily be gathered out of Exodus 22:16, it being sufficient here to mention what was peculiar to this case. She shall be his wife, to wit, if her father consent to it, which is to be supposed out of Exodus 22:16, it being not likely that the father should lose his paternal right of disposing his child when she was in some sort forced, rather than when she was enticed. He may not put her away all his days, which others were suffered to do, Deuteronomy 24:1, and he who enticed the maid \Exodus 22:16\ was not prohibited to do.
