Impurity From Childbirth
12 The Lord spoke to Moses and told him 2 to tell the Israelites these things:
When a woman produces offspring[a] and gives birth to a male, she will become unclean for seven days just as she is unclean during the time of her monthly period. 3 On the eighth day, the foreskin of his flesh[b] shall be circumcised.
