Leviticus 20:11

Context
20:11 If a man has sexual intercourse with his father’s wife, he has exposed his father’s nakedness. 2  Both of them must be put to death; their blood guilt is on themselves. 3 

1 tn Heb “The nakedness of the daughter of your father’s wife born of your father, she is your sister; you must not uncover her nakedness.” That is, a half sister, the daughter of the man’s father by another wife, who is not the man’s mother, is to be considered a true sister. Therefore, the man must not have sexual intercourse with her.

2 sn See the note on Lev 18:7 above.

3 tn See the note on v. 9 above.
