Commentary
Foster relations are established from both sides, that of the foster mother and the foster father; resulting in foster maternal uncles and aunts etc. The husband of the suckling woman becomes the father of the foster child; so
his brothers and sisters will be child's foster paternal uncles and aunts etc.
