Leviticus 14:47 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 14:47

And he that lieth in the house shall wash his clothes
Which is more than bare entrance into it, and might be supposed the more to be infected by it, and therefore obliged to the washing of himself, and his garments: and he that eateth in the house shall wash his clothes;
if he stayed no longer than while he ate half a piece of wheaten bread he was clean, but not if he stayed so long as to eat a like quantity of barley bread, and sat down and ate it with food F18.

Leviticus 14:47 In-Context

45 quam statim destruent et lapides eius ac ligna atque universum pulverem proicient extra oppidum in loco inmundo
46 qui intraverit domum quando clausa est inmundus erit usque ad vesperum
47 et qui dormierit in ea et comederit quippiam lavabit vestimenta sua
48 quod si introiens sacerdos viderit lepram non crevisse in domo postquam denuo lita est purificabit eam reddita sanitate
49 et in purificationem eius sumet duos passeres lignumque cedrinum et vermiculum atque hysopum
