9 And what saddle soever he rideth upon that hath the issue shall be unclean.
9 " 'Everything the man sits on when riding will be unclean,
9 And any saddle on which the one with the discharge rides shall be unclean.
9 Every saddle on which the man with the discharge rides is unclean.
9 Any saddle on which he who has the discharge rides shall be unclean.
9 Any saddle blanket on which the man rides will be ceremonially unclean.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 15:9

Laws concerning ceremonial uncleanness.
We need not be curious in explaining these laws; but have reason to be thankful that we need fear no defilement, except that of sin, nor need ceremonial and burdensome purifications. These laws remind us that God sees all things, even those which escape the notice of men. The great gospel duties of faith and repentance are here signified, and the great gospel privileges of the application of Christ's blood to our souls for our justification, and his grace for our sanctification.
