¶ An Addition. Pag. 122. line 11.
TO raise up seed to the brother, that is, to the el∣dest brother, Deut. 25. 5. If brethren dwell toge∣ther, and one of them die, that is, if the first or el∣dest die and haue no seede, then his second brother was bound to raise up seede to him if he were not married; for the Law speaketh of brethren dwelling together, and not married or foris familiate: an example of this we haue in Er and Onan, Gen. 38.
Secondly, if he had no brethren, then his neerest Kinsman was bound to performe this duty to him, if he had not beene married.
But it seemeth that this dutie is required of N. Rut. 4. [Object.] although he had children, for he saith, then I should marre mine owne inheritance.
It is onely required of him here to redeeme the inhe∣ritance, [Answ.] but not to marrie his Cousins wife; this was onely stare super nomen defuncti, that is, to make his childe to be reputed as the childe of the dead, and so the childe should not be counted his sonne, but the sonne of Chilion; thus his inheritance should haue beene marr'd, and his name rased out, and this made N to re∣fuse, but if the Cousin were not married, then he was bound to marry the wife of his Kinsman.
