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 »Si una mujer se entrega a un animal macho para tener relaciones sexuales con él, tanto ella como el animal serán ejecutados. Deberán matar a ambos, pues son culpables de un delito de muerte.
17 »Si un hombre se casa con su hermana, la hija de su padre o de su madre, y tiene relaciones sexuales con ella, es un acto vergonzoso. Serán excluidos públicamente de la comunidad. Puesto que el hombre ha deshonrado a su hermana, se le castigará por su pecado.
18 »Si un hombre tiene relaciones sexuales con una mujer durante su período menstrual, ambos serán excluidos de la comunidad, pues juntos expusieron la fuente de su flujo de sangre.
19 »No tengas relaciones sexuales con tu tía, ya sea hermana de tu madre o de tu padre. Eso deshonraría a un pariente cercano. Ambos son culpables y serán castigados por su pecado.
20 »Si un hombre tiene relaciones sexuales con la esposa de su tío, ha deshonrado a su tío. Tanto el hombre como la mujer serán castigados por su pecado, y morirán sin tener hijos.
