Every testamentary provision shall be understood in the literal meaning of its words, unless it clearly appears that the will of the testator was different. In case of doubt, that which appears most in accordance with the intention of the testator, according to the tenor of the same will, shall be observed.
A testator cannot prohibit the contest of his will in the cases in which there exists nullity specified by law.
