Vedic Reference
English
Edidhiṣuḥ-pati is a term occurring only in the Vājasaneyi
Saṃhitā, ^1 where the commentator Mahīdhara interprets it as
meaning the ‘husband of a younger sister married before the
elder sister.’ Though this sense is probably correct, the form
is doubtless, as Delbrück^2 points out, corrupt. See Didhiṣūpati.
