Then Judah said to Onan,“ Sleep with your brother’s wife and fulfill your duty to her as a brother- in- law to raise up offspring for your brother.”

Then Judah said to Onan,“ Sleep with your brother’s wife. After all, you are her brother- in- law. So carry out your duty to her. Provide children for your brother.”

Then Judah said to Onan,“ Go in to your brother’s wife and perform the duty of a brother-in-law to her, and raise up offspring for your brother.”

Then Judah said to Er’s brother Onan,“ Go and marry Tamar, as our law requires of the brother of a man who has died. You must produce an heir for your brother.”

Then Judah said to Onan,“ Have relations with your brother’s wife and perform your duty as a brother in law to her, and raise up a child for your brother.”

And Judah said to Onan,“ Go in to your brother’s wife and marry her, and raise up an heir to your brother.”

The same day Sadducees( who say there is no resurrection) came to him and asked him,“ Teacher, Moses said,‘ If a man dies without having children, his brother must marry the widow and father children for his brother.’Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married and died, and since he had no children he left his wife to his brother.The second did the same, and the third, down to the seventh.Last of all, the woman died.

But Naomi replied,“ Go back home, my daughters! There is no reason for you to return to Judah with me! I am no longer capable of giving birth to sons who might become your husbands!

Then Boaz said,“ When you acquire the field from Naomi, you must also acquire Ruth the Moabite, the wife of our deceased relative, in order to preserve his family name by raising up a descendant who will inherit his property.”The guardian said,“ Then I am unable to redeem it, for I would ruin my own inheritance in that case. You may exercise my redemption option, for I am unable to redeem it.”( Now this used to be the customary way to finalize a transaction involving redemption in Israel: A man would remove his sandal and give it to the other party. This was a legally binding act in Israel.)So the guardian said to Boaz,“ You may acquire it,” and he removed his sandal.Then Boaz said to the leaders and all the people,“ You are witnesses today that I have acquired from Naomi all that belonged to Elimelech, Kilion, and Mahlon.I have also acquired Ruth the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, as my wife to raise up a descendant who will inherit his property so the name of the deceased might not disappear from among his relatives and from his village. You are witnesses today.”All the people who were at the gate and the elders replied,“ We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman who is entering your home like Rachel and Leah, both of whom built up the house of Israel! May you prosper in Ephrathah and become famous in Bethlehem.

And every daughter who possesses an inheritance from any of the tribes of the Israelites must become the wife of a man from any family in her father’s tribe, so that every Israelite may retain the inheritance of his fathers.No inheritance may pass from tribe to tribe. But every one of the tribes of the Israelites must retain its inheritance.”

If brothers live together and one of them dies without having a son, the dead man’s wife must not remarry someone outside the family. Instead, her late husband’s brother must go to her, marry her, and perform the duty of a brother-in-law.Then the first son she bears will continue the name of the dead brother, thus preventing his name from being blotted out of Israel.But if the man does not want to marry his brother’s widow, then she must go to the elders at the town gate and say,“ My husband’s brother refuses to preserve his brother’s name in Israel; he is unwilling to perform the duty of a brother-in-law to me!”Then the elders of his city must summon him and speak to him. If he persists, saying,“ I don’t want to marry her,”then his sister-in-law must approach him in view of the elders, remove his sandal from his foot, and spit in his face. She will then respond,“ Thus may it be done to any man who does not maintain his brother’s family line!”His family name will be referred to in Israel as“ the family of the one whose sandal was removed.”
