Leviticus 12:1-4 ▼

1 The LORD said to Moses:

2 Tell the Israelites: When a woman has a child, giving birth to a boy, she shall be unclean for seven days, with the same uncleanness as during her menstrual period.

3 On the eighth day, the flesh of the boy’s foreskin shall be circumcised,

4 and then she shall spend thirty-three days more in a state of blood purity; she shall not touch anything sacred nor enter the sanctuary till the days of her purification are fulfilled.
