Bible Question: What Gensis says about incest sexual abuse?

Bible Answer: Hello new light,

Little is directly mentioned about incest in Genesis. Tyndale's Bible Dictionary makes this note:

"Prohibitions against incest are prominent in Leviticus 18. Leviticus 20 also addresses the matter and attaches the death penalty to certain kinds of incest. The assignment of severe penalty and the judgments of dishonor and perversion clearly mark incest as a grave offense.
Actual cases in the Bible show incest to be the fruit of a flawed character. Lot’s daughters slept with their drunken father and both became pregnant (Gen. 19:30–38)."

I hope this helps,
