- Does the description of the one with a “running sore” (emission) note any action on his part which might have caused this condition?
- Why does anyone touching the “zav” or that touched by the “zav” require washing?
- If, after 7 days, the “zav” is free of emission, what is he to do?
- If the emission is semen, is the procedure the same as for either the leper or the “zav” (Leviticus 15:16-18)?
- And, if not the same—why might it be different?
- Is the regulation for a menstruating woman (Leviticus 15:19-24) the same as for a man re: emission?
- If the symptom for a woman indicates a condition beyond menstruation (Leviticus 15:25-30), is the cleansing procedure other than previously stated? (Is it comparable to that of the leper?)
- Would Leviticus 15:31 add motivation to anyone afflicted by the conditions described over and above healing—and protection for the overall community?
- At any point, does text state or imply that the condition described represented a “punishment” for “improper action” on his/her part and/or a punishment from the Divine?
- How does Leviticus 15:31 indicate that these provisions (in Leviticus 14-15) involve the Divine?
