On the time length of uncleaness being longer after birth of a girl than after a boy, I recently read a very enlightening info on another sight that said that it is because that there are documented cases where, because of access estrogene in the some mother’s milk for a while after childbirth, the girl-childs body is tricked into believing it was time to menstrate!!! So, there is a very reasonable physical reason for the extended ‘unclean’ time. On Deuteronomy 22:25-22:29- if you would look up John Gill’s exposition of the Bible you will see that he explains that the original words used for the two different cases are totally different. Only the first means he used force, thus he raped her, while the word in the other case indicated that she willingly had sex with him. So, the 22:28 is NOT dealing with a rape case, but rather with two people being caught doing the naughty.
