Vayikra 15:29 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 15:29

And on the eighth day
From the cessation of her issue, and the healing of it, at least from the time she began to number for her cleansing: she shall take unto her two turtles, or two young pigeons;
the same as the man that had an issue was obliged to bring. Now this is to be understood not of a woman that had an ordinary issue, or her monthly courses; for this would have been both troublesome and expensive to have brought every month, but of a woman that had laboured under an extraordinary one; though some think every menstruous woman was obliged to this offering: and bring them unto the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation;
whither the man that had an issue brought his; (See Gill on Leviticus 15:14).

Vayikra 15:29 In-Context

27 And whosoever toucheth those things shall be tamei, and shall immerse his garments, and immerse himself in mayim, and be tamei until the erev.
28 But if she be tohorah of her discharge, then she shall count to herself seven days, and after that she shall be tohorah.
29 And on the yom shemini she shall take unto her two turtle doves, or two young pigeons, and bring them unto the kohen, to the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed.
30 And the kohen shall sacrifice the one for a chattat, and the other for an olah (burnt offering); and the kohen shall make kapporah for her before Hashem for the discharge of her tumah.
31 Thus shall ye separate the Bnei Yisroel from their tumah; that they die not in their tumah, when they defile My Mishkan that is among them.
