Levítico 12:1 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 12:1

And the Lord spake unto Moses

R. Semlai remarks, that as the creation of man was after that of the beasts, fowls, fishes so the laws concerning the uncleanness of men are after those relating to beasts, &c, and they begin with the uncleanness of a new mother, because, as Aben Ezra observes, the birth is the beginning of man:

saying:

Levítico 12:1 In-Context

1 Y el SEÑOR habló a Moisés, diciendo:
2 Habla a los hijos de Israel y diles: "Cuando una mujer dé a luz y tenga varón, quedará impura por siete días; como en los días de su menstruación, será impura.
3 "Al octavo día la carne del prepucio del niño será circuncidada.
4 "Y ella permanecerá en la sangre de su purificación por treinta y tres días; no tocará ninguna cosa consagrada ni entrará al santuario hasta que los días de su purificación sean cumplidos.
5 "Pero si da a luz una niña, quedará impura por dos semanas, como en los días de su menstruación; y permanecerá en la sangre de su purificación por sesenta y seis días.
