Bible chapter guide

Leviticus 12

The law of purification after childbirth: a mother is unclean for seven days after a son, who is circumcised on the eighth day, and then waits thirty-three days; after a daughter the times are doubled. She then brings a lamb, or two pigeons if she is poor.

How sure can we be?

  • Strongly supported

    Two birds are what the Law allows for those who cannot afford a lamb, so the family was probably poor.
