SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:30
No tomará alguno la mujer de su padre, ni descubrirá el regazo de su padre.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 22:30
Verse 30. A man shall not take his father's wife] This is to be understood as referring to the case of a stepmother. A man in his old age may have married a young wife, and on his dying, his son by a former wife may desire to espouse her: this the law prohibits. It was probably on pretense of having broken this law, that Solomon put his brother Adonijah to death, because he had desired to have his father's concubine to wife, 1 Kings ii. 13-25.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 30. A man shall not take his father’s wife , etc.] Not marry her, whether his own mother, or a stepmother; or even, as Aben Ezra thinks, anyone that was deflowered by his father. Jarchi interprets it of his father’s brother’s wife, which he was obliged to marry by virtue of the law in ( Deuteronomy 25:5) nor discover his father’s skirt ; or lie with her his father had thrown his skirt over, or married; and which being the first, is mentioned here as a sample to all the rest forbidden ( Leviticus 18:7) or, as Bishop Patrick expresses it, is a “short memorandum”, to make them careful to observe all the other laws respecting incestuous marriages and copulations there delivered.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 13-30 - These and the like regulations might be needful then, and yet it is no necessary that we should curiously examine respecting them. The law relate to the seventh commandment, laying a restraint upon fleshl lusts which war against the soul __________________________________________________________________
