Which verse prescribes washing all flesh in water, and being unclean until the even when a man’s seed copulates goes out?

• A. Leviticus 15:2
• B. Leviticus 15:16
• C. Leviticus 11:2
• D. Leviticus 20:6

Answer: (B)

The main idea is ceremonial impurity tied to bodily discharges and the cleansing steps that follow. The verse that says to wash all flesh in water and remain unclean until the evening after a man’s seed goes out is found in Leviticus 15:16. It states that if any man’s seed of copulation goes out from him, he shall wash all his flesh in water and be unclean until the even. This sits among other purity laws in Leviticus 15 that describe how long someone remains ceremonially impure due to discharges and how purification works.

Why this one fits best: it directly pairs the act (semen emission) with the cleansing action (washing with water) and the period of impurity (until the evening).

Why the other choices don’t fit: one describes impurity from a general discharge but doesn’t include the specific washing and timing terms tied to seed emission; another deals with dietary laws, and the last with prohibitions unrelated to ceremonial cleanliness.
