NETBible

If a man has sexual intercourse with both a woman and her mother,¹ it is lewdness.² Both he and they must be burned to death,³ so there is no lewdness in your midst.

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “And a man who takes a woman and her mother.” The Hebrew verb “to take” in this context means “to engage in sexual intercourse.”

²tn Regarding “lewdness,” see the note on Lev 18:17 above.

³tn Heb “in fire they shall burn him and them.” The active plural verb sometimes requires a passive translation (GKC 460 §144.f, g), esp. when no active plural subject has been expressed in the context. The present translation specifies “burned to death” because the traditional rendering “burnt with fire” (KJV, ASV; NASB “burned with fire”) could be understood to mean “branded” or otherwise burned, but not fatally.
