Levirate marriage is a type of marriage in which the brother of a deceased man is obliged to marry his brother's widow. Levirate marriage has been practiced by societies with a strong clan structure in which exogamous marriage (i.e. marriage outside the clan) is forbidden.

Nahhhh....
There's no way on Earth I'm marrying her undecided...
She's now a member of my family ((sister in-law)), so if I marry a member of my family, is that not incest?

First, "levirate marriage" is shit. It does not exist after all before Ruth and Boaz from which the Levite marriage shit comes from, Judah's evil sons did it, and yet no judahrite marriage.

So throw that shit into the fire.

Therefore, the question is, brother wants to marry his brother's widow.

The Law of Righteousness in that case would direct the flow, for there are many Wrongs that are in it and must not be in it.

The Spirit directs these things!

Your levirate marriages have nothing to do with God or Christianity nor is there anything scriptural about these traditions. undecided
