"Whoever touches his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And whosoever toucheth his bed,.... Is unclean. According to the Misnah (x), a bed defiles a man seven ways, so as to defile garments; standing, sitting, lying, hanging, and leaning,
and by touching, and by bearing: shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water; in forty seahs of water, as the Targum of Jonathan: and be unclean until the even; be unfit for conversation with other men till the even, though both his body and clothes are washed. (x) Zabim, ut supra. (c. 2. sect. 4.)
