Is that considered incest?

Well that would be your second cousin,which would make it legal in all 50 states so I guess you're safe there. Of course the US is one of only very few countries that has any restrictions about marrying cousins at all. Before you go listening to all the idiots on here talking about genetic defects etc you might want to do your own research. Recent studies,using the genetic information from the rest of the planet where it's legal to marry a cousin show no greater incidence of birth defects in cousin marriages than in the general population.

No - the Bible contains many instances of approved incest.

The Bible doesn't say incest is wrong. In fact, we all started out by having incestuous relationships. Nowadays, it is irrational to do it and highly unrecommended. There are health risks and moral issues as the gene-pool is no longer pure.

I do not think there is any rule on that but today we would not consider it advisable but isaac did in marrying Rabeca.

Of course it is. Your cousins daughter would be your second cousin marrying her would make it even worse as that is usually when genetic defects occur!
