Mark 6:18

Context
6:18 For John had repeatedly told 1  Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.” 2 

1 tn The imperfect tense verb is here rendered with an iterative force.

2 sn It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife. This was a violation of OT law (Lev 18:16; 20:21). In addition, both Herod Antipas and Herodias had each left marriages to enter into this union.
