# marries his brother’s wife Some interpret this to apply only when the brother is still alive or has become the father of male children by the woman. # He has uncovered his brother's nakedness Here the idiom "uncovered ... nakedness" means "disgraced." See how you translated this idiom in [Leviticus 18:7](../18/07.md). Alternate translation: "He has disgraced his brother" or "He has shamed his brother" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])
