Ibn Ezra on Leviticus 20:20

Home

Torah

20 ‎[1] WITH HIS UNCLE’S WIFE. *Dodato* refers to his uncle’s wife.

‎[2] THEY SHALL DIE CHILDLESS. The Sadducees say that *aririm* (childless) means naked and that the meaning of *yamutu* (they shall die) is, they shall be put to death. They did not speak the truth. The correct interpretation is found in the words of the Aramaic translator, for *aririm* is similar to *ariri* (childless) in *I go hence childless* (ariri) (Gen. 15:2). I have previously explained *Write ye this man childless* (ariri) (Jer. 22:30).
