Parallel Verses
New American Standard Bible
'As for any garment or any leather on which there is seminal emission, it shall be washed with water and be unclean until evening.

King James Bible
And every garment, and every skin, whereon is the seed of copulation, shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the even.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
Any clothing or leather on which there is an emission of semen must be washed with water, and it will remain unclean until evening.
Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

skin The poorer class of Arabs of our times make use of mattresses in their tents; and other inhabitants of these countries, who affect ancient simplicity of manners, make use of goat-skins. Dr. R. Chandler, in his Travels in Greece, tells us, that he saw some dervishes at Athens sitting on goat-skins; and that he was after- wards conducted into a room furnished in like manner, with the same kind of carpeting, where he was treated with a pipe and coffee by the chief dervish. Those that are at all acquainted with Oriental manners, in these later times, know that their dervishes (who are a sort of Mohammedan devotees, as a good deal resembling the begging friars of the church or Rome) affect great simplicity, and even sometimes austerity, in their dress and way of living. As these dervishes that Dr. Chandler visited sat on goat-skins, and used no other kind of carpet for the accommodation of those who visited them: so it should seem that the Israelites in the wilderness made use of skins for mattresses to lie upon, and consequently, we may equally suppose to sit upon in the day time, instead of a carpet.
