Leviticus 15:16

14 On the eighth day he shall take for himself ^atwo turtledoves or two young pigeons, and come before the Lord, to the door of the tabernacle of meeting, and give them to the priest.

15 Then the priest shall offer them, ^athe one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. ^bSo the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord because of his discharge.

16 ^a‘If any man has an emission of semen, then he shall wash all his body in water, and be unclean until evening.

17 And any garment and any leather on which there is semen, it shall be washed with water, and be unclean until evening.

18 Also, when a woman lies with a man, and there is an emission of semen, they shall bathe in water, and ^abe unclean until evening.

19 ^a‘If a woman has a discharge, and the discharge from her body is blood, she shall be¹ set apart seven days; and whoever touches her shall be unclean until evening.

20 Everything that she lies on during her impurity shall be unclean; also everything that she sits on shall be unclean.

Leviticus

LEVITICUS. So called from its treating of the laws relating to the ritual, the services, and sacrifices of the Jewish religion, the superintendence of which was entrusted to the Levitical priesthood. It is chiefly, however, the duties of the priests, "the sons of Aaron," which this book describes; and its claim to be the work of Moses is established by the following passages:— II Chronicles 30:16; Nehemiah 8:14; Jeremiah 7:22-23; Ezekiel 20:11 Matthew 8:4; Luke 2:22; John 8:5; Romans 10:4; Romans 13:9; II Corinthians 6:16; Galatians 3:12; I Peter 1:16.
