Leviticus 15:20
"“‘If a woman has a discharge, and her discharge in her flesh is blood, she shall be in her impurity seven days. Whoever touches her shall be unclean until the evening."
Key Reflection
In Leviticus 15:20, if a woman experiences an abnormal vaginal bleeding, she is declared unclean for seven days and must remain separate from others during this time. Anyone who touches her or anything she has touched becomes ritually unclean until evening, reflecting the stringent purity laws aimed at maintaining separation from what was seen as defiling impurities to maintain the sacredness of the community.
