Part 3: Contraception and the Catholic Church
. . .'My brother-in-law does not intend to perform his duty toward me and refuses to perpetuate his brother's name in Israel.' Thereupon the elders of his city shall summon him and admonish him. If he persists in saying, 'I am not willing to marry her,' his sister-in-law, in the presence of the elders, shall go up to him and strip his sandal from his foot and spit in his face, saying publicly, 'This is how one should be treated who will not build up his brother's family!’ And his lineage shall be spoken of in Israel as 'the family of the man stripped of his sandal.’ (DT 25:5-10)
