Contextual Overview
19 And unto a woman during her removal for uncleanness, shalt thou not approach, to uncover her shame. 20 And of the wife of thy neighbour, shalt thou not have carnal knowledge, - to commit uncleanness with her. 21 And none of thy seed, shalt thou deliver up, to cause to pass through to Molech, - that thou profane not the name of thy God, I, am Yahweh. 22 And, with mankind, shalt thou not lie as with womankind, - an abomination, it is. 23 And of no beast, shalt thou have carnal knowledge to commit uncleanness therewith, - neither shall a woman present herself to a beast to couch down thereto, - confusion, it is. 24 Do not make yourselves unclean in any of these things, - For in all these things, have the nations made themselves unclean, whom, I, am sending out from before you. 25 Therefore hath the land become unclean, and I have visited the iniquity thereof upon it, - and the land hath vomited her inhabitants. 26 Ye, therefore, shall observe my statutes and my regulations, and have nothing to do with any of these abominations, - whether the home-born, or the sojourner that sojourneth in your midst; 27 For all these abominations, have the men of the land done, who were before you; And so the land hath become unclean: 28 So shall the land not vomit you, through your making it unclean, - as it vomited the nation which was 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.
