Vayikra 15:6 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 15:6

And he that sitteth on [any] thing whereon he sat that hath the
issue
Shall be unclean, even though he does not touch it. Jarchi says, though there should be, as he adds, ten things or vessels one upon another, they all defile because of sitting, and so by lying:

shall wash his clothes, and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean
until the even; as in the preceding case. (See Gill on Leviticus 15:5).

Vayikra 15:6 In-Context

4 Every bed, whereon he lieth that hath the discharge, is tamei; and everything, whereon he sitteth, shall be tamei.
5 And whosoever toucheth his bed shall immerse his garments, and immerse himself in mayim, and be tamei until the erev.
6 And he that sitteth on any thing whereon he sat that hath the discharge shall immerse his garments, and immerse himself in mayim, and be tamei until the erev.
7 And he that toucheth the basar of him that hath the discharge shall immerse his garments, and immerse himself in mayim, and be tamei until the erev.
8 And if he that hath the discharge spit upon him that is tahor, then he shall immerse his garments, and immerse himself in mayim, and be tamei until the erev.
