But there were some men who were unclean because of a human corpse, so they could not observe the Passover on that day. These men came before Moses and Aaron the same dayand said to him,“ We are unclean because of a human corpse. Why should we be excluded from presenting the LORD’s offering at its appointed time with the other Israelites?”Moses replied to them,“ Wait here until I hear what the LORD commands for you.”Then the LORD spoke to Moses:“ Tell the Israelites: When any one of you or your descendants is unclean because of a corpse or is on a distant journey, he may still observe the Passover to the LORD.

“ The person who touches any human corpse will be unclean for seven days.He is to purify himself with the water on the third day and the seventh day; then he will be clean. But if he does not purify himself on the third and seventh days, he will not be clean.Anyone who touches a body of a person who has died, and does not purify himself, defiles the tabernacle of the LORD. That person will be cut off from Israel. He remains unclean because the water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him, and his uncleanness is still on him.“ This is the law when a person dies in a tent: everyone who enters the tent and everyone who is already in the tent will be unclean for seven days,and any open container without a lid tied on it is unclean.Anyone in the open field who touches a person who has been killed by the sword or has died, or who even touches a human bone, or a grave, will be unclean for seven days.

Leviticus 15:2-27
“ Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When any man has a discharge from his member, he is unclean.This is uncleanness of his discharge: Whether his member secretes the discharge or retains it, he is unclean. All the days that his member secretes or retains anything because of his discharge, he is unclean.Any bed the man with the discharge lies on will be unclean, and any furniture he sits on will be unclean.Anyone who touches his bed is to wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.Whoever sits on furniture that the man with the discharge was sitting on is to wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.Whoever touches the body of the man with a discharge is to wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.If the man with the discharge spits on anyone who is clean, he is to wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.Any saddle the man with the discharge rides on will be unclean.Whoever touches anything that was under him will be unclean until evening, and whoever carries such things is to wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.If the man with the discharge touches anyone without first rinsing his hands in water, the person who was touched is to wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.Any clay pot that the man with the discharge touches must be broken, while any wooden utensil is to be rinsed with water.“ When the man with the discharge has been cured of it, he is to count seven days for his cleansing, wash his clothes, and bathe his body in fresh water; he will be clean.He must take two turtledoves or two young pigeons on the eighth day, come before the LORD at the entrance to the tent of meeting, and give them to the priest.The priest is to sacrifice them, one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. In this way the priest will make atonement for him before the LORD because of his discharge.“ When a man has an emission of semen, he is to bathe himself completely with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.Any clothing or leather on which there is an emission of semen is to be washed with water, and it will remain unclean until evening.If a man sleeps with a woman and has an emission of semen, both of them are to bathe with water, and they will remain unclean until evening.“ When a woman has a discharge, and it consists of blood from her body, she will be unclean because of her menstruation for seven days. Everyone who touches her will be unclean until evening.Anything she lies on during her menstruation will become unclean, and anything she sits on will become unclean.Everyone who touches her bed is to wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.Everyone who touches any furniture she was sitting on is to wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.If discharge is on the bed or the furniture she was sitting on, when he touches it he will be unclean until evening.If a man sleeps with her, and blood from her menstruation gets on him, he will be unclean for seven days, and every bed he lies on will become unclean.“ When a woman has a discharge of her blood for many days, though it is not the time of her menstruation, or if she has a discharge beyond her period, she will be unclean all the days of her unclean discharge, as she is during the days of her menstruation.Any bed she lies on during the days of her discharge will be like her bed during menstrual impurity; any furniture she sits on will be unclean as in her menstrual period.Everyone who touches them will be unclean; he must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.
