¶ The maner of pourgynge the vnclennesse, bothe of men and women

CAPI. XV.

ANd the Lorde spake vnto Moses and [unspec A] Aaron, sayeng. Speake vnto the chyl∣dren of Israel, and say vnto them. Who soeuer hath a runnyng yssue out of his flesshe, is vncleane by reason of that yssue. And this shalbe the token of his vnclennesse in his yssue, when he is vnclene. If his fleshe run, or yf his flesshe congele by the reason of his yssue, then is it vnclennes. Euery couche wheron he lyeth that hathe the yssue, is vn∣cleane. And euery thynge wheron he sytteth, is vncleane. Who soeuer toucheth his couch shall wasshe his clothes, and bathe hym selfe in water, and be vncleane vnto the euen.

And he that sytteth on any thynge wheron he sat that hath the yssue, shal wasshe his clo¦thes, and bathe hym selfe in water / and be vn¦cleane vntyl the euenynge. He that toucheth the flesshe of hym that hath the yssue, shall washe his clothes, and bathe hym selfe in wa¦ter, and be vncleane vnto the euen. If he also that hath the yssue, spyt vpon hym that is cleane, he shall wasshe his clothes, and bathe hym selfe in water, & be vncleane vnto euen.

And what horse harnesse soeuer he rydeth [unspec B] vpon that hath the yssue, shall be vncleane.

And who soeuer toucheth any thynge that was vnder hym, shall be vncleane vnto the euen. And he that beareth any suche thynges shal wasshe his clothes, and bathe hym selfe in water, and be vncleane vnto the euen.

And who soeuer he toucheth that hath the yssue (and haue not fyrst wasshed his handes in water) shall wasshe his clothes, and bathe hym selfe in water, and be vncleane vnto the euen. The vessel of earth that he toucheth, whiche hath the yssue, shal be broken: and all vessels of wood shalbe rynsed in water.

When he also that hath an yssue, is clen sed of his yssue, he shall nombre seuen dayes for his clensyng, and wasshe his clothes, and bathe his flesshe in runnynge water, and so shall he be cleane. And the, viii. daye he shall take to hym two Turtle doues, or two yonge pygeons, and come before the lorde vnto the dore of the tabernacle of wytnesse, and gyue them vnto the preest.

And the preest shall offre them: the one for a synoffryng, and the other for a burntoffryng And the preest shall make an attonement for him before the lord, as concernyng his yssue.

If a mans seede departe from hym in his slepe, he shal wasshe his flesshe in water, and be vncleane vntyll euen. And all the clothes & al the furres wherin is suche seede of slepe, shalbe wasshed with water, and be vncleane, vnto the euen. And yf he that hath suche an yssue of seede, do lye with a woman, they shal bothe wasshe them selues with water, and be vncleane vntyll euen.

If any womans natural course of blood do [unspec C] runne, she shalbe put aparte. vii. dayes. Who soeuer toucheth her, shall be vncleane vnto the euen. And all that she lyeth vpon, in the tyme of her natural dysease, shalbe vncleane lyke as euery thyng also that she sytteth vpō is vncleane. Who soeuer toucheth her bed, shal wasshe his clothes, and bathe hym selfe with water, and be vncleane vnto the euen. And whosoeuer toucheth any thyng that she sat vpon, shall wasshe his clothes, and bathe hym selfe in water, and be vncleane vnto the euen: so that whyther he touche her couche / or any vessel wheron she hath sytten, he shall be vnclene vnto the euen. And yf a man lye with her, and her vnclennes come vpon hym he shall be vncleane. vii. dayes, and all the couche wheron he lyeth shalbe vncleane.

When a womans bloode runneth longe tyme: out of the tyme of her natural course: [unspec D] or yf it runne beyonde her natural co••••ese, let al the dayes of the yssue be iudged vncleane, euen as the dayes of her natural disease, & she shall be vncleane. Al her couches wheron she lyeth (as longe as her yssue lasteth) shalbe as her couche whē she hath her naturall dysease. And whatsoeuer she sytteth vpon, shalbe vn∣cleane, as is her vnclennesse when she is put apart. And who soeuer toucheth any of these shalbe vncleane, and shal wasshe his clothes & bath hym selfe in water & be vncleane vnto euen. And after that she is clēsed of her yssue, she shal counte her. vii. dayes, and after that she shalbe cleane. In the. viii. daye she shall take vnto her two turtels or two yong pyge∣ons, and brynge them vnto the preest before the dore of the Tabernacle of wytnesse. And the preest shal offre the one for a synoffryng / and the other for a burntofferyng: and make an attonement for her before the lorde, as cō∣cernyng the yssue of her vnclēnes. Therfore shall ye seperate the chyldren of Israel from theyr vnclennesse, that they dye not in theyr vnclennes: yf they defyle my habytacyō that is amonge them. This is the lawe of hym that hath a runnyng yssue, and of him whose seede runneth from hym in his slepe, and is defyled therin, and of her, that (for her natu∣rall disease) is put a parte: and of whosoeuer hath a runnynge yssue, whyther it be man, or womā, and of hym that lyeth with her which is vncleane.
