Глава 20

Gen.20:12. “Because she is really my sister on my father’s side, but not on my mother’s side.” That is, she is the daughter of his brother Aran, and not his sister. But since the Hebrew text says: “She is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother,” and this means that, most likely, she was the sister of Abraham, then in his justification we say that at that time such marriages were not yet prohibited by law.
