Speak unto the children of Israel, and say, When a woman hath brought forth seed, and borne a man-child, she shall be unclean [a]seven days, like as she is unclean when she is put apart for her [b](A)disease.

((B)And in the eighth day the foreskin of the children’s flesh shall be circumcised.)

And she shall continue in the blood of her purifying three [c]and thirty days: she shall touch no [d]hallowed thing, nor come into the [e]Sanctuary, until the time of her purifying be out.
