Commentary for Leviticus 21:9

Wesley's Notes for Leviticus 21:9

21:9 And the daughter - And by analogy his son also, and his wife, because the reason of the law here added, concerns all. And nothing is more common than to name one kind for the rest of the same nature, as also is done #Lev 18:6|. She profaneth her father - Exposeth his person and office, and consequently religion, to contempt.
