What does Deuteronomy 27:22 mean?

Anyone who sleeps with his father's wife is crossing a line—he's dishonoring his own father. That's not okay. Deuteronomy 27:22 - Modern Text Bible

(This verse calls out the serious wrong of having a sexual relationship with your father's wife, which was seen as a deep betrayal and violation of family boundaries in ancient Israel.)
