Leviticus20:21
21 And if a man shall take his brothers wife ; it is an unclean thing : he hath uncovered his brothers nakedness, they shall be childless.
Except in the case allowed by God, Deut. 25. 5.
An abominable thing, like the uncleanness of a menstruous woman, which is oft expressed by this word: Heb▪ a separation, or removing, i. e. a thing deserving separation or exclusion from society with others, or a thing to be removed out of sight or out of the world.
Marginal references: chap. 18. 16.; Heb. a separation.
