23.77

Relatives and kin (親戚: 戚 is read 千 + 歷 fanqie. Kong Anguo's commentary on the Shangshu says: '戚 means close.' Gu Yewang says: 'Closeness is the reason for being related.' The Mao Commentary on the Shijing says: 'Being fond of each other is called qi (戚).' The character qi (戚) should properly take the vertical heart radical (忄); that sūtra editions write it as 戚 is vulgar).
