<p id="Le12_2"><b>2. If a woman,</b> etc.—The mother of a boy was ceremonially unclean for a week, at the end of which the child was circumcised (<a onclick="return mV('Gen',17,12);">Gen 17:12</a>; <a onclick="return mV('Rom',4,'11-13');">Rom 4:11-13</a>); the mother of a girl for two weeks (<a onclick="return mV('Lev',12,5);">Lev 12:5</a>) —a stigma on the sex (<a onclick="return mV('1Ti',2,14,15);">1Ti 2:14-15</a>) for sin, which was removed by Christ; everyone who came near her during that time contracted a similar defilement. After these periods, visitors might approach her though she was still excluded from the public ordinances of religion [<a onclick="return mV('Lev',12,4);">Lev 12:4</a>].

<p id="Le12_6"><b>6-8. the days of her purifying</b>—Though the occasion was of a festive character, yet the sacrifices appointed were not a peace offering, but a burnt offering and sin offering, in order to impress the mind of the parent with recollections of the origin of sin, and that the child inherited a fallen and sinful nature. The offerings were to be presented the day after the period of her separation had ended—that is, forty-first for a boy, eighty-first for a girl.

<p id="Le12_8"><b>8. bring two turtles,</b> etc.—(See on JFB for <a href="./Comm/jfb/Lev/Lev005.html#Le5_6">Lev 5:6</a>). This was the offering made by Mary, the mother of Jesus, and it affords an incontestable proof of the poor and humble condition of the family (<a onclick="return mV('Luk',2,'22-24');">Luk 2:22-24</a>).
