Leviticus 15:1 In-Context

1 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron:
2 Speak to the Israelites and say to them: Whenever a man has a genital emission, that emission is unclean.
3 This is the nature of the uncleanness brought about by his emission: regardless of whether his genital organ allows his emission to flow or blocks the flow, it is unclean to him.
4 Any bed on which someone with an emission lies will be unclean, and any object on which that person sits will be unclean.
5 Anyone who touches such a bed must wash their clothes, bathe in water, and will be unclean until evening.
