Levítico 20:18 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 20:18

And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness
Her monthly courses, which make her weak and languid, which is forbidden, ( Leviticus 18:19 ) ; this is not to be understood of a man's lying with his wife ignorantly, when in such a condition, for this being the case, he was only unclean seven days, ( Leviticus 15:24 ) ; whereas this made him and her liable to cutting off, as in an after clause; but of his lying with her, knowing this to be the case with her, and of which she could not be ignorant, and therefore both liable to the same punishment; or else of any other man lying with her, or of any man lying with any woman, married or unmarried, being in such circumstances: and shall uncover her nakedness;
that is, have carnal knowledge of her: he hath discovered her fountain;
from whence her issue of blood flows: and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood; freely and willingly, as Aben Ezra observes; for if she had been forced, he alone would have been cut off; but both these phrases put together show agreement in this matter, that they both had knowledge of her case, and both consented to commit the sin: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people;
by death, either by the hand of the civil magistrate, the case being known and proved, or else by the hand of God being known by mortality or the pestilence, as the Targum of Jonathan, or they should die childless; (See Gill on Leviticus 20:17).

Levítico 20:18 In-Context

16 Y la mujer que se acercare a algún animal, para tener ayuntamiento con él, a la mujer y al animal matarás; morirán indefectiblemente; su sangre será sobre ellos mismos

17 El varón que tomare a su hermana, hija de su padre o hija de su madre, y viere su desnudez, y ella viere la suya, cosa es execrable; por tanto serán muertos a ojos de los hijos de su pueblo; descubrió la desnudez de su hermana; su iniquidad llevará

18 Y cualquiera que durmiere con mujer menstruosa, y descubriere su desnudez, su fuente descubrió, y ella descubrió la fuente de su sangre; ambos serán cortados de entre su pueblo

19 La desnudez de la hermana de tu madre, o de la hermana de tu padre, no descubrirás; por cuanto descubrió su parienta, su iniquidad llevarán

20 El varón que durmiere con la mujer del hermano de su padre, la desnudez del hermano de su padre descubrió; su pecado llevarán; morirán sin hijos
