Leviticus 12:8 - John Wesley's Notes

Leviticus 12:8

6 ^a‘When the days of her purification are fulfilled, whether for a son or a daughter, she shall bring to the priest a ^blamb of the first year as a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove as a ^csin offering, to the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

7 Then he shall offer it before the Lord, and make¹ atonement for her. And she shall be clean from the flow of her blood. This is the law for her who has borne a male or a female.

8 ^a‘And if she is not able to bring a lamb, then she may bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons—one as a burnt offering and the other as a sin offering. ^bSo the priest shall make atonement for her, and she will be¹ clean.’ ”

Leviticus 12:8

The morality of this law obliges women who have received mercies from God in child - bearing, with all thankfulness to acknowledge his goodness to them, owning themselves unworthy of it, and (which is the best purification) to continue in faith, and love, and holiness, with sobriety.
