Verse 4
What man soever of the seed of Aaron is a leper ,.... A young, or an old man, as the Targum of Jonathan, and indeed man or woman; for the wives and daughters of the priests, if in this, and other circumstances following, might not eat of the holy things until cleansed, who otherwise might, see Leviticus 13:2 ,
or hath a running issue ; a gonorrhoea, whether man or woman, Leviticus 15:2 ,
he shall not eat of the holy things until he be clean ; he might eat of the tithes, but not of the wave breast, or heave shoulder:
and whoso toucheth any that is unclean by the dead ; not only that touched the dead, which made unclean, but that touched any person or thing that was made unclean by it:
or a man whose seed goeth from him ; involuntarily when asleep, in a dream, and through a lustful imagination; see Leviticus 15:16 .
