ומצאנו טהרה על הפסק הלכלוך. (מצורע סימן קמו)

Ayelet Hashachar, translated by Betzalel Avraham Feinstein, 2021

And we find the language טהרה (cleanness) with respect to the ceasing of physical uncleanness⁶²³.

There are two types of cleanness, physical and spiritual. Most of the time when the Torah talks about cleanness, it means spiritual cleanness. However, when Leviticus 15:13 says,וכי יטהר הזב מזובו(And when he that has an issue is cleansed of his issue), it is talking about physical cleanness⁶²⁴.
