Hi all,
Tried looking up past threads on this subject and had trouble getting answers...
I'm at a loss at what to think concerning WCF 24:4:
Questions:
1. How do we know which OT laws apply today and which ones don't?
2. How can Lev. 20:19-21 and Deut. 25:5 be reconciled?
3. Was it unlawful for Harod to take Herodias as wife simply because she had been Philip's wife (if he was dead), or was Philip still alive, making this an adulterous relationship?
4. Is the relationship of brothers different than the situation in 1 Cor. 5:1? Would the father being alive or dead change anything?
Thanks in advance. I'm stumped...

The man may not marry any of his wife's kindred nearer in blood than he may of his own, nor the woman of her husband's kindred nearer in blood than of her own.
