Back to Bible Topic from Genesis to Revelation

Back to 'Leviticus


Le 12:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Le 12:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
Le 12:3: And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
Le 12:4: And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.
Le 12:5: But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.
