Leviticus 18:9

Genesis 20:12

20:12 What’s more, ⁴  she is indeed my sister, my father’s daughter, but not my mother’s daughter. She became my wife.

Ezekiel 22:11

22:11 One ⁷  commits an abominable act with his neighbor’s wife; another obscenely defiles his daughter-in-law; another violates ⁸  his sister – his father’s daughter ⁹  – within you.

¹ tn Heb “the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother.”

² tn Heb “born of house or born of outside.” CEV interprets as “whether you grew up together or not” (cf. also TEV, NLT).

³ tc Several medieval Hebrew mss, Smr, LXX, and Syriac have “her nakedness” rather than “their nakedness,” thus agreeing with singular “sister” at the beginning of the verse.

⁴ tn Heb “but also.”

⁵ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

⁶ tn Heb “plaster” (so KJV, ASV; likewise in v. 4). In the translation “cover” has been used for stylistic reasons.

⁷ tn Heb “a man.”

⁸ tn The verb is the same one used in verse 10b and suggests forcible sexual violation of the woman.

⁹ sn Sexual relations with one’s half-sister may be primarily in view here. See Lev 18:9; 20:17.
