The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 87

Syite'Neia

[unclear: Syite'Neia].

"That Leviticus, neither by implication nor by parity of reason, forbids marriage with the sister of a deceased wife is, however, conclusively shown in verse 18. 'Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness, besides the other in her lifetime.' This sanctions marriage with the sister-in-law, after the death of the wife."—Rev. H. F. Bacon, M.A., Vicar of Castletown, Derbyshire.
