MISHNAH: One may marry [relatives of] a rape victim or a seduced woman1Incest prohibitions which are not effective at birth can be created only by marriage, not by promiscuity.. He who rapes or seduces [a relative of] a married woman is guilty2He is liable not only for rape and seduction but also for incest.. A person may marry his father’s rape victim or seduced woman, his son’s rape victim or seduced woman. Rebbi Jehudah prohibits his father’s rape victim or seduced woman3The majority considers both parts of Deut. 23:1: “Nobody may marry his father’s wife, and he should not uncover his father’s garment’s corner” as one prohibition; R. Jehudah reads the second clause as referring to women with whom his father has extramarital relations..

It is written16Lev. 20:14: “If a man takes a woman and her mother, it is taboo.” Everywhere is written “lying with”17In the punishment list of Chap. 20. In the prohibition of Chap. 18, the expression used is mostly “uncovering genitals”. but here is written “taking”, to teach you that he cannot be guilty for the second [woman] unless the first one is prepared18Available to him at least by betrothal or obligation of levirate. The criminal sanction cannot be applied if one of the parties was married to him but died. for him. Or maybe only by marriage19That he had to marry both women. This is impossible since an incestuous marriage has no existence in law.? We already said that there is no incestuous marriage. But is it not written20Deut. 23:1; neither the term “lying with” nor the term “uncovering genitals” is used. Does this mean that only the marriage with a stepmother is forbidden?
This and the following questions challenge the assertion that the incest prohibition of a man with mother and daughter is the only one where “taking” is mentioned.: “Nobody may marry his father’s wife, and he should not uncover his father’s garment’s corner”? This comes to tell you that she was permitted to him before his father married her21The statement that he may not marry her makes sense only if without the father’s marriage the son could have married her. This supports the Mishnah.. But is it not written22Lev. 20:21. This is a relevant question since the verse is also from Chapter 20.: “If a man take his brother’s wife, it is despicable”? This comes to tell you that she was permitted to him before his brother married her. This is confirmed by levirate23She again becomes permitted to the levir.. But is it not written24Lev. 18:18. The argument following is parallel to that of the verse quoted before this one.: “You should not take a woman in addition to her sister to make her a co-wife”? This comes to tell you that she was permitted to him before he married her sister. This is confirmed after her sister’s death. But is it not written25Lev. 20:17. The argument identifies חסד I “to be well behaved” and חסד II “to act shamefully”. A similar argument in Babli Sanhedrin 58b.: “A man who would take his sister, his father’s daughter or his mother’s daughter; he sees her genitals and she sees his genitals, it is ḥesed.” Rebbi Avin said, that you should not say that Kain married his sister, Abel married his sister, “it is charitable”, I was charitable with the first generations so the world could be inhabited; “I said, the world was built on ḥesed26Ps. 89:3..” But is it not written27Lev. 21:7.: “Widow, divorcee, and desecrated, these he shall not take”? This comes to tell you that if he became betrothed to her that the betrothal is valid28The marriages forbidden only to priests, “prohibitions of holiness”, are not incestuous; they are sinful but valid, cf. Halakhah 2:3..

What is the reason of Rebbi Jehudah? “54Deut. 23:1. The hermeneutic principles require that two parallel clauses be interpreted as referring to two different situations. If such an interpretation is impossible, then the two clauses count as two separate prohibitions. A man may not take his father’s wife,” that refers to his father’s wife; “and he should not uncover his father’s wing,” that is his rape victim. How do the rabbis explain “his father’s wing”? There55Babli Yebamot 97a, stated in the name of Samuel., they say and they do not know the origin of the tradition, that refers to a wing which leans on his father56The widow of a childless uncle who waits to be married in levirate by his father and in the meantime is forebidden to all other men.. Would he not anyhow be guilty for her because of his father’s wife57For the rabbis who hold that candidacy counts as betrothal; cf. Chapter 2, Note 27.? Rebbi Hila said, because of forewarning58In rabbinic interpretation, no punishment is possible in criminal cases unless criminal intent was established by two witnesses who testify that the perpetrator was duly warned that his intended act was criminal., that if he was warned because of his father’s wife, he will be whipped, and because of his father’s wing, he will be whipped59In the Babli, 97a, an anonymous statement that if we warned for both his father’s wife and his father’s wing, he transgresses two prohibitions in one act.. Rebbi Jehudah agrees about whipping. Rebbi Jehudah agrees about sacrifice60Since no penalty is stated in the Torah for the man who marries a woman who had unmarried sex with his father, he cannot be punished and, therefore, is unable to bring a sacrifice even if his act is considered sinful.. Rebbi Jehudah agrees about all other doubtful cases that he is free61If the woman had sex with any man other than his father, a marriage to whom would make her current marriage incestuous, no punishment can be meted out even according to R. Jehudah since there is no biblical basis for it. Consequently, the marriage is valid.. Rebbi Jehudah agrees that if he gave her qiddušin that these qiddušin are legally valid.
