If a woman have an issue of her blood many days not in the time of her impurity, or if she have an issue beyond the time of her impurity; all the days of the issue of her uncleanness she shall be as in the days of her impurity: she is unclean.

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.
