  1     ?  And YAHWEH spoke unto Mosheh, saying,

WAYYIORA - LEVITICUS 12:2

  2    Speak unto the children of Yisrael, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.

WAYYIORA - LEVITICUS 12:3

  3    And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.

WAYYIORA - LEVITICUS 12:4

  4    And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.

WAYYIORA - LEVITICUS 12:5

  5    But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.

Her Offerings For Purification

  6     ?  And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the kohen:

WAYYIORA - LEVITICUS 12:7

  7    Who shall offer it before YAHWEH, and make an atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the torah for her that has born a male or a female.

WAYYIORA - LEVITICUS 12:8

  8    And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the kohen shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
