Question of the Week: What does the Bible mean when it calls something unclean?
Verses: Leviticus 15:25-27
There are two words for unclean in the Hebrew language. The first refers to a moral uncleanness that implies an uncleanness before God. This is known as guilt that mars someone after committing adultery or murder. The second refers to bodily uncleanness that simply requires a bodily cleansing and a time of separation in God’s law from public places. This is what’s being referred to when someone in considered ceremonially unclean after childbirth, a monthly cycle, or coming in contact with a dead body. It’s not referring to sin in any way.
