A Chronic Medical Condition
Commentators clarify that this verse addresses a chronic, abnormal physical disorder, not a regular menstrual cycle. Both Charles Ellicott and John Gill directly connect this law to the woman with the 'issue of blood' whom Jesus healed in the Gospels (Matthew 9:20), whose condition had lasted for many years.
