Question:<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

I like my sister\u2019s brother-in-law\u00a0(the brother of her lover).<\/em><\/span>\u00a0Is it something normal?<\/em><\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I suppose you refer to\u00a0the brother of your sister\u2019s husband. Moreover, if she is not yet married, he is not\u00a0her brother-in-law.<\/span> <\/p>\n

As for your question, I suppose\u00a0that you want to ask if this relationship is incest,\u00a0if he proposes you.<\/span> <\/p>\n

The l<\/span>ist of marriage relations (sexual relations) prohibited because\u00a0they are blood related\u00a0is written in chapter 18 of the book of Leviticus in\u00a0the Old Testament. <\/span>I suggest you to\u00a0read this chapter in the Bible, but if you do not have a\u00a0Bible, I have placed it below:<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,\u00a0\u201dSpeak to the sons of Israel and say to them, \u2018I am the LORD your God.\u00a0You shall not do what is done in the land of Egypt where you lived, nor are you to do what is done in the land of Canaan where I am bringing you; you shall not walk in their statutes.\u00a0You are to perform My judgments and keep My statutes, to live in accord with them; I am the LORD your God.\u00a0So you shall keep My statutes and My judgments, by which a man may live if he does them; I am the LORD.\u00a0None of you shall approach any blood relative of his to uncover nakedness; I am the LORD.\u00a0You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, that is, the nakedness of your mother. She is your mother; you are not to uncover her nakedness.\u00a0You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father\u2019s wife; it is your father\u2019s nakedness.\u00a0The nakedness of your sister, either your father\u2019s daughter or your mother\u2019s daughter, whether born at home or born outside, their nakedness you shall not uncover.\u00a0The nakedness of your son\u2019s daughter or your daughter\u2019s daughter, their nakedness you shall not uncover; for their nakedness is yours.\u00a0The nakedness of your father\u2019s wife\u2019s daughter, born to your father, she is your sister, you shall not uncover her nakedness.\u00a0You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father\u2019s sister; she is your father\u2019s blood relative.\u00a0You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother\u2019s sister, for she is your mother\u2019s blood relative.\u00a0You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father\u2019s brother; you shall not approach his wife, she is your aunt.\u00a0You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law; she is your son\u2019s wife, you shall not uncover her nakedness.\u00a0You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother\u2019s wife; it is your brother\u2019s nakedness.\u00a0You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and of her daughter, nor shall you take her son\u2019s daughter or her daughter\u2019s daughter, to uncover her nakedness; they are blood relatives. It is lewdness.\u00a0\u2019You shall not marry a woman in addition to her sister as a rival while she is alive, to uncover her nakedness.\u00a0Also you shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness during her menstrual impurity.\u00a0You shall not have intercourse with your neighbor\u2019s wife, to be defiled with her.\u00a0You shall not give any of your offspring to offer them to Molech, nor shall you profane the name of your God; I am the LORD.\u00a0You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination.\u00a0Also you shall not have intercourse with any animal to be defiled with it, nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it; it is a perversion.\u00a0Do not defile yourselves by any of these things; for by all these the nations which I am casting out before you have become defiled.\u00a0For the land has become defiled, therefore I have brought its punishment upon it, so the land as spewed out its inhabitants.\u00a0But as for you, you are to keep My statutes and My judgments and shall not do any of these abominations, neither the native, nor the alien who sojourns among you\u00a0(or the men of the land who have been before you have done all these abominations, and the land has become defiled);\u00a0so that the land will not spew you out, should you defile it, as it has spewed out the nation which has been before you.\u00a0For whoever does any of these abominations, those persons who do so shall be cut off from among their people.\u00a0Thus you are to keep My charge, that you do not practice any of the abominable customs which have been practiced before you, so as not to defile yourselves with them;\u00a0I am the LORD your God.\u2019\u201d (Deuteronomy 18:1\u201330)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As you see, the marriage with your brother-in-law is not listed here.<\/p>\n
