DAILY MITZVAH (Maimonides): Friday, November 25, 2005

B"H

Cheshvan 23, 5766 * November 25, 2005

==================================================
D A I L Y M I T Z V A H (M A I M O N I D E S )
==================================================

Today's Mitzvot (Day 84 of 339):

Negative Mitzvah 357
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Negative Mitzvah 357: It is forbidden to marry a childless widow
before she receives permission from her
brother-in-law

-Deuteronomy 25:5 "The wife of the dead man shall not marry
an outsider"

If a woman's husband passes away and they had no children it
is a Mitzvah for the brother of the dead husband to marry her
(see Positive Mitzvah 216).

Since it is his opportunity to continue the family name of
his dead brother, no one else is permitted to take the widow
as a wife.

If he does not wish to marry her and fulfills the proper ceremony
of "Chalitzah" (see Positive Mitzvah 217), the woman is free to
marry someone else.
