(SAMPLE READING OF CHART: Take row 4, for example. What am *I* to my sister's husband? I am
his father-in-law's son (8B). What am I to the son of my sister's husband (i.e. the son of my sister)? I am
his mother's brother (3A). Finally, what am I to the son-in-law of my sister's husband (i.e. the husband of
my sister's daughter)? I am the brother of his mother-in-law (11A).)

FOOTNOTES:
==========
* The Mishnah does not state explicitly that I may not testify for these two relatives (5A, 8A), as RASHI
mentions on the Mishnah (27b, DH Levado). Nevertheless, it is obvious that just as those relatives may not
testify for me, so, too, I may not testify for them, as Rashi explains there. Therefore, to make this list of
relatives who may not testify for a person complete, we must add "my wife's brother's son" ("Ben Achi
Ishto"), corresponding to 5A, and "my daughter's husband" ("Ba'al Bito"), corresponding to 8A.
** Neithre the Mishnah nor the Gemara mention explicitly that I cannot testify for these three relatives (7B,
7C, 9C), nevertheless, it is obvious that just as they may not testify for me, so, too, I may not testify for
them (as mentioned in the previous footnote). See Insights to 27b.
