Se’if 1א׳

כֹּהֵן אָסוּר מִן הַתּוֹרָה בִּגְרוּשָׁה זוֹנָה וַחֲלָלָה, וְאָסוּר בַּחֲלוּצָה מִדְּרַבָּנָן. לְפִיכָךְ, אִם עָבַר וְנָשָׂא סְפֵק חֲלוּצָה, אֵין צָרִיךְ לְהוֹצִיא. אֲבָל גְּרוּשָׁה, אֲפִלּוּ אֵינָהּ אֶלָּא סְפֵק גְּרוּשָׁה, צָרִיךְ לְהוֹצִיא, בֵּין שֶׁנִּתְגָּרְשָׁה מִן הָאֵרוּסִין בֵּין שֶׁנִּתְגָּרְשָׁה מִן הַנִּשּׂוּאִין. וַאֲפִלּוּ רֵיחַ גֵּט פּוֹסֵל בִּכְהֻנָּה וְכוֹפִין אוֹתוֹ לְהוֹצִיא. וְהֵיכִי דָּמֵי רֵיחַ גֵּט, כְּגוֹן שֶׁאָמַר לָהּ: הֲרֵי אַתְּ מְגֹרֶשֶׁת מִמֶּנִּי וְאֵי אַתְּ מֻתֶּרֶת לְכָל אָדָם, וְאַף עַל פִּי שֶׁלֹּא הֻתְּרָה בְּזֶה הַגֵּט, נִפְסְלָה לִכְהֻנָּה. וַאֲפִלּוּ לֹא נִתְגָּרְשָׁה רַק מִשּׁוּם קוֹל קִדּוּשִׁין בְּעָלְמָא, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהוּא בָּרוּר שֶׁאֵין מַמָּשׁ בְּאוֹתָן קִדּוּשִׁין וְאֵין נוֹתְנִין גֵּט רַק מִכֹּחַ חֻמְרָא בְּעָלְמָא, אֲפִלּוּ הָכִי פְּסוּלָה לִכְהֻנָּה (תְּשׁוּבַת הָרַשְׁבָּ"א סִימָן תק"נ). אֲבָל אִם נָתַן לָהּ גֵּט עַל תְּנַאי וְלֹא נִתְקַיֵּם הַתְּנַאי, אֵינוֹ כְּלוּם וְאֵינוֹ פּוֹסֵל. וְרַשַּׁאי הַכֹּהֵן לְכַתְּחִלָּה לְגָרֵשׁ עַל תְּנַאי:

A priest if forbidden from the Torah to marry a divorced woman, a harlot, or a challalah (a woman of invalid priestly lineage) and is forbidden from a Chalutzah from the rabbis. Therefore if he transgressed and married a a questionable Chalutzah he does not have to divorce her, but if he married a divorced woman, even if she was only questionably divorced, he must divorce her regardless if she was divorced out of engagement or full marriage. Even the spirit of a Get (document of divorce) invalidates a woman from marrying a priest and they force him to divorce her. What's the case of the spirit of a Get? If he says to her "You are divorced from me put you are not permitted to anyone else, even though she is not divorced via this type of Get she becomes invalidated for priests. [Rema: Even if she was only divorced from the voice of engagement, even if it was clear that there was no substance to the engagement and they only give her a Get due to a stringency she is invalidated from marrying a priest.] But if he gives her a Get on a condition that was not fulfilled, it is not considered a Get and she is not invalidated and a priest can divorce a woman on a condition.

Se’if 2ב׳

קְטַנָּה שֶׁמֵּאֲנָה בְּבַעְלָהּ, מֻתֶּרֶת לְכֹהֵן. וְאִם נָתַן לָהּ גֵּט, אֲסוּרָה. וְאִם אַחַר שֶׁנָּתַן לָהּ גֵּט הֶחֱזִירָהּ וּמֵאֲנָה בּוֹ, מֻתֶּרֶת לְכֹהֵן, שֶׁהַמֵּאוּן מְבַטֵּל הַגֵּט. וְאִם אַחַר שֶׁגֵּרְשָׁה נִשֵּׂאת לְאַחֵר וּמֵאֲנָה בּוֹ, יֵשׁ מִי שֶׁאוֹמֵר שֶׁמֻּתֶּרֶת לְכֹהֵן:

A minor girl who refuses her husband is permitted to marry a priest, but if he gave her a Get she is forbidden. If after he gave her a Get, he remarried her and she then refused she becomes permitted to a priest because her refusal nullifies the Get. If after she was divorced she was married to a different man and refused him, there are those who say she is permitted to a priest.

Se’if 3ג׳

יָצָא קוֹל: פְּלוֹנִי כֹּהֵן גֵּרַשׁ אֶת אִשְׁתּוֹ, וַהֲרֵי הִיא יוֹשֶׁבֶת תַּחְתָּיו, אֵין מוֹצִיאִין מִיָּדוֹ, דִּלְקָלָא דִּלְבָתַר נִשּׂוּאִין אוֹ דְּבָתַר אֵרוּסִין לֹא חַיְשִׁינָן. וְאִם מֵת, וְנִשֵּׂאת לְכֹהֵן אַחֵר, תֵּצֵא:

A rumor goes out: "Ploni the kohen divorced his wife." Yet behold, she sits beneath him [i.e. there is no doubt they are still together], we do not force her apart from him. For we don't listen to rumors after marriage or after engagement. And if [the rumor is] he died, and she marries a different kohen, [we don't listen to the rumor and] she must separate [from her new husband].
