19And you do not draw near to a woman in the separation of her uncleanness to uncover her nakedness.20And you do not give your seed [from] intercourse to the wife of your fellow, to become unclean with her. 21And you do not give from your seed to pass over to the Molech, nor do you defile the Name of your God; I [am] YHWH. 22And you do not lie with a male as one lies with a woman; it [is] an abomination. 23And you do not commit your intercourse with any beast, to become unclean with it; and a woman does not stand before a beast to mate with it; it [is] perversion. 24Do not defile yourselves with all these, for with all these the nations have been defiled which I am sending away from before you; 25and the land is defiled, and I charge its iniquity on it, and the land vomits out its inhabitants. 26And you have kept My statutes and My judgments, and do not do [any] of all these abominations, the native and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst, 27for the men of the land who [are] before you have done all these abominations and the land is defiled, 28and the land does not vomit you out in your defiling it, as it has vomited out the nation which [is] before you;

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Also thou shall not approach unto a woman,.... Not even a man to his own wife, and much less to another woman:
to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness; in her monthly courses; and the time of her separation from her husband on that account was seven days, Leviticus 15:19; if a man lay with a woman when in such circumstances, they were both to be cut off from their people, Leviticus 20:18; and such an action is reckoned among sins, and uncleanness of the worst sort, Ezekiel 22:10.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Leviticus 18:19. As long as she is put apart — Leviticus 15:24; Leviticus 15:24.
