Thou shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and
her
daughter
That is, if a man marries a woman, and she has a daughter, which
is the man's daughter-in-law, after the death of his wife he may
not marry this daughter; for this daughter is of the same flesh
with her mother, who became one flesh with the man she married,
and therefore his relation to her daughter is too near to marry
her: Jarchi says, if he does not marry the woman, but only
deflower her, it is free for him to marry her daughter; but Aben
Ezra says, if he has lain with the mother, the daughter is
forbidden; however, if he married either of them, the other was
forbidden; he could not marry them both, neither in the lifetime
of them both, nor after the death of either of them:
neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her
daughter's
daughter, to uncover her nakedness;
not any of her granddaughters, either in the line of her son or
daughter; that is, might not lie with either of them, or marry
them, and much less then marry her own daughter, these being a
further remove from her: [for] they [are] her near
kinswomen;
one or other of them, even every one of them, "the rest" and
residue "of her" F18, of her flesh, who together made
one flesh with her; and therefore not to be married to her
husband, either in her life, or after her death: it [is]
wickedness:
a very great wickedness, abominable in the sight of God, and to
be detested by man as vile and impious; it is whoredom, as the
Targum of Jonathan renders it.
