a discharge of her blood for many days

on Leviticus 15:25-30

A discharge that runs past its time moves the woman from the short rule to the long one. Mark 5:25 and Luke 8:43 tell of a woman twelve years under these verses.

proposed

We need not be at all curious in explaining these antiquated laws, it is enough if we observe the general intention; but we have need to be very cautious lest sin take occasion by the commandment to become more exceedingly sinful; and exceedingly sinful it is when lust is kindled by sparks of fire from God's altar.
