פירוש על קידושין 34:7
Daf Shevui to Kiddushin
The Talmud argues that the brother also has a special relationship with the father—should a man die without children, his brother performs yibum with his wife.
This argument is refuted—yibum happens only if there is no son (or offspring). But if there is a son, then there is no yibum. Thus we see that son’s relationship is primary.
