And the LORD spoke unto Moses and to Aaron, saying, (Leviticus 15:1 KJV)

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man hath a running issue out of his flesh, because of his issue he is unclean. (Leviticus 15:2 KJV)

And this shall be his uncleanness in his issue: whether his flesh run with his issue, or his flesh be stopped from his issue, it is his uncleanness. (Leviticus 15:3 KJV)

Every bed, whereon he lieth that hath the issue, is unclean: and every thing, whereon he sitteth, shall be unclean. (Leviticus 15:4 KJV)

And whosoever toucheth his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even. (Leviticus 15:5 KJV)

And he that sitteth on any thing whereon he sat that hath the issue shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even. (Leviticus 15:6 KJV)

And he that toucheth the flesh of him that hath the issue shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even. (Leviticus 15:7 KJV)

And if he that hath the issue spit upon him that is clean; then he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even. (Leviticus 15:8 KJV)

And what saddle soever he rideth upon that hath the issue shall be unclean. (Leviticus 15:9 KJV)

And whosoever toucheth any thing that was under him shall be unclean until the even: and he that beareth any of those things shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even. (Leviticus 15:10 KJV)

And whomsoever he toucheth that hath the issue, and hath not rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even. (Leviticus 15:11 KJV)

And the vessel of earth, that he toucheth which hath the issue, shall be broken: and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water. (Leviticus 15:12 KJV)

And when he that hath an issue is cleansed of his issue; then he shall number to himself seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in running water, and shall be clean. (Leviticus 15:13 KJV)

And on the eighth day he shall take to him two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, and come before the LORD unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and give them unto the priest: (Leviticus 15:14 KJV)

And the priest shall offer them, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for him before the LORD for his issue. (Leviticus 15:15 KJV)

There’s a host of commentaries that suggest all kinds of understandings of the "running issue" described here. It is definitely not the same as a semen emission, as that is covered next. The Greek Septuigent specifically uses the term gonorrhea (I’m not making this up!) However, in the Greek understanding of the word, it doesn’t necessarily refer to a sexually transmitted disease. It may simply be a weeping fluid from any orifice due to a bacterial infection.
