Leviticus 15:1 In-Context

1 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,

2 “Say to the Israelites, ‘When any man has a bodily discharge, the discharge is unclean.

3 This uncleanness is from his discharge, whether his body allows the discharge to flow or blocks it. So his discharge will bring about uncleanness.

4 Any bed on which the man with the discharge lies will be unclean, and any furniture on which he sits will be unclean.

5 Anyone who touches his bed must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.
