Leviticus 15:33 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 15:33

And of her that is sick of her flowers
Her monthly courses, for these are a sickness, ( Leviticus 20:18 ) ; and make a woman languid and faint, as the word is rendered, ( Lamentations 1:13 ) ; or to be in pain ^F14, as some render it here; and pains are reckoned among the signs of them by the Misnic doctors ^F15: and of him that hath an issue, of the man, and of the woman;
of both, whether the one or the other: and of him that lieth with her that is unclean;
though her own husband.
