19 ‎[1] AND…THE NAKEDNESS OF THY MOTHER’S SISTER. Its meaning is, I have previously warned you not to uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister. Now the one who uncovers the nakedness has made naked his near kin.
‎[2] THEY SHALL BEAR THEIR INIQUITY. If they willingly acted thus. Scripture does not mention the punishment for having intercourse with the sister of one’s father. It also does not even hint at the punishment for taking two sisters. The intelligent will understand why. The words of tradition are also true.
