THE TALMUD EXPOSED (Pt. 9)

Did you know the Talmud permits incest?

It states:

𝗔 𝗱𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗝𝘂𝗱𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿. (𝗬𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗺𝗼𝘁 𝟮𝟯𝗮)

The Gemara rejects this: On the contrary, it should include a Canaanite maidservant or a gentile woman, as, if she converts, betrothal can come into effect with the father himself.

The Gemara answers: When she converts, she is considered like a different body, i.e., a new person, but when she was a gentile there was no possibility of marital relations with her. Therefore, the verse excludes her.
