Matthew 22:24
Douay-Rheims
Saying: Master, Moses said: If a man die having no son, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up issue to his brother.
George Leo Haydock
Raise up issue to his brother, to be heirs of his name and of his effects, as we read in Ruth, chap. iv, ver. 10: suscitare nomen defuncti, &c. to raise up the name of the deceased in his inheritance, lest his name be cut off from among his family, and his brethren, and his people. (Haydock)
