| 520 | |a Analyses of the marriage of Tobiah and Sarah in the Book of Tobit have frequently appealed to biblical descriptions of levirate marriage to explain Tob 3:7 and 6:12, in which Tobiah is said to have the right to "inherit her."

Tobiah does not inherit Sarah, but inherits through marriage to Sarah. | ||
