25 ' Now if a woman has a discharge of her blood many days , not at the period of her menstrual impurity , or if she has a discharge beyond that period , all the days of her impure discharge she shall continue as though in her menstrual impurity ; she is unclean . 26 'Any bed on which she lies all the days of her discharge shall be to her like her bed at menstruation ; and every thing on which she sits shall be unclean , like her uncleanness at that time . 27 'Likewise, whoever touches them shall be unclean and shall wash his clothes and bathe in water and be unclean until evening .
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 15:25-27

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.
