Musar על מכות 10:11

Shenei Luchot HaBerit

Commandment 196 prohibits sexual relations with one's daughter. This prohibition is not spelled out in the text because it is derived from the prohibition of sexual relations with one's granddaughter, a blood-relation more distant than one's daughter. Our sages have also derived this prohibition from the similarity in expressions used by the Torah (גזרה שוה). This is necessary because we have a rule that one may not punish someone for transgressing a prohibition which is derived merely by application of logic.
