Mesorat%20hashas for Sanhedrin 149:17

מנין לעשות זכרים כנקבות נאמר כאן זמה ונאמר להלן זמה מה להלן זכרים כנקבות אף כאן זכרים כנקבות

This law refers only to a woman and her mother. Whence do I derive it for a woman and her daughter, or her daughter's daughter, or her son's daughter? The word zimmah [wickedness] occurs here, and is also written elsewhere:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen; it is wickedness, [H] (Lev. XVIII, 17). ');">¹³</span>
