What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Shaked Bohadana’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Rambam Laws of the Pains of Marriage Chapter Two Halacha 1 Our Rabbi Rambam writes: His father's wife, his son's wife, his brother's wife, and his father's brother's wife, the four of them are multiplied by him forever, whether from the engagement or from the marriage, whether during their husband's lifetime or after their husband's death, except for his brother's wife who did not leave a son, and if the husband of one of them is alive, he is obligated to pay two, because of the remnant of flesh and because of the wife of another man.

The meaning is that even if it's not his mother, his father went and married Meshi, his son's wife. The meaning is that his son married some woman, meaning his daughter-in-law, his brother's wife , his father's brother's wife, which is actually the wife of his father's brother, meaning his uncle's wife. Now the Rambam writes here in the halacha, "It began with his father's wife, his son's wife, his brother's wife, and his father's brother's wife." He details here about four women, all four of whom were married to him forever. What is meant by forever, whether from the
