THE MESSAGE
God spoke to Moses: "Command the People of Israel to ban from the camp anyone who has an infectious skin disease, anyone who has a discharge, and anyone who is ritually unclean from contact with a dead body. Ban male and female alike; send them outside the camp so that they won't defile their camp, the place I live among them."
New American Standard Bible (1995)
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

Contextual Overview

1And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,2"Command the sons of Israel, and they send out of the camp every leper, and everyone with discharging, and everyone defiled by a body; 3you send out from male even to female; you send them to the outside of the camp and they do not defile their camps in the midst of which I dwell." 4And the sons of Israel do so, and they send them out to the outside of the camp; as YHWH has spoken to Moses so the sons of Israel have done. 5And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying, 6"Speak to the sons of Israel: Man or woman, when they do any of the sins of man, by committing a trespass against YHWH, and that person [is] guilty, 7and they have confessed their sin which they have done, then he has restored his guilt in its principal, and is adding its fifth to it, and has given [it] to him in reference to whom he has been guilty. 8And if the man has no redeemer to restore the guilt to, the guilt which is restored [is] to YHWH for the priest, apart from the ram of the atonements, whereby he makes atonement for him. 9And every raised-offering of all the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they bring near to the priest, becomes his; 10and any man's hallowed things become his; that which any man gives to the priest becomes his."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the Lord spake unto Moses,.... Jarchi says, what follows was said on the day the tabernacle was erected, but it seems rather to have been delivered after the several camps were formed, and the people numbered, when those that were unclean were ordered to be cast out of them:

saying; as follows.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The general purpose of the directions given in this and the next chapter is to attest and to vindicate, by modes in harmony with the spirit of the theocratical law, the sanctity of the people of God. Thus, the congregation of Israel was made to typify the Church of God, within which, in its perfection, nothing that offends can be allowed to remain (compare Matthew 8:22; Revelation 21:27).

Compare the marginal references. The precepts of Leviticus 13:0 and Leviticus 15:0 are now first fully carried out. They could hardly have been so earlier, during the hurry and confusion which must have attended the march out of Egypt, and the encampments which next followed.
