Surely it excludes the 'uncleanness of the deep' caused by a reptile? - No: it excludes the 'uncleanness of the deep' of gonorrhoea.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' A zab (gonorrhoeist) is unclean seven days, and the Passover-offering may not be offered on his behalf. Now, if the eve of Passover marks the seventh day of his uncleanness, he is in a state of doubt: if he does not discharge on that day, he will be clean in the evening; if he does discharge, he becomes unclean for a further seven days.
