Context of Leviticus 15:14

12A clay vessel which the man with the discharge touches must be broken, and any wooden utensil must be rinsed in water. 13“‘When the man with the discharge becomes clean from his discharge he is to count off for himself seven days for his purification, and he must wash his clothes, bathe in fresh water, and be clean. Then on the eighth day he is to take for himself two turtledoves or two young pigeons, and he is to present himself before the Lord at the entrance of the Meeting Tent and give them to the priest, 15and the priest is to make one of them a sin offering and the other a burnt offering. So the priest is to make atonement for him before the Lord for his discharge. 16“‘When a man has a seminal emission, he must bathe his whole body in water and be unclean until evening,

Commentaries on Leviticus 15:14

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 13-15Unlike the man with a skin disease, a man with a bodily discharge could stay at home (see Leviticus 13:46).

One was a sin offering and the other was a whole burnt offering.Read the comment
