Imamat 18:16

18:16 You must not have sexual intercourse with your brother’s wife; she is your brother’s nakedness. ⁴ 

[18:8]  ¹ tn Heb “the nakedness of your father she is.” See the note on v. 7 above. This law refers to another wife of the man’s father, who is not that man’s mother. The laws in the Pentateuch sometimes assume the possibility that a man may have more than one wife (cf., e.g., Deut 21:15-17).

[18:14]  ² tn Heb “you must not draw near to his wife.” In the context this refers to approaching one’s aunt to have sexual intercourse with her, so this has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[18:14]  ³ tn As in v. 12 (see the note there), some mss and versions have “because she is your aunt.”

[18:16]  ⁴ sn Regarding the last clause, see the notes on vv. 7 and 10 above.
