Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man hath a running issue out of his flesh, [because of] his issue he [is] unclean.
Leviticus 15:2 — KJV
A running issue. That is, “a discharge” (RSV).
This chapter deals with various kinds of defilement, both of men and of women. These defilements did not imply moral transgression, though they defiled both the person concerned and also others who came in contact with him. Some occur in the natural course of life, such as that of a woman in “the time of her separation” (v. 25) or in an “issue” of “blood” (v. 19), or of a man during sleep (v. 16). We conclude that the other defilements mentioned do not result from sin but from normal body functions or from abnormal conditions.
