These texts do not give detailed physiological descriptions. Instead, they prescribe what to do in the cases of skin disease, delivery and wo\/man's genital discharges, but the particular way of dealing with the body and the language used in Leviticus 12 and 15 ask for clarification: How do these texts construct the male and female body? Which roles does gender play within this language? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy means of themes like menstruation and circumcision, the author unfolds the language used for the body in Leviticus and its interpretation history.
