Exegesis
The Qal imperfect yazuv {יָזוּב | yāzûv} ‘flows/discharges’ governs the noun zov {זוֹב | zôv} ‘discharge’, and the temporal phrase yamim rabbim {יָמִים רַבִּים | yā-mîm rab-bîm} ‘many days’ extends the duration.
The construct chain kol-yemei zov tumatah {כָּל־יְמֵי זוֹב טֻמְאָתָהּ | kol-yə-mê zôv ṭū-mə-ʾā-ṯāh} ‘all the days of the discharge of her impurity’ parallels ki-mei-niddatah {כִּימֵי־נִדָּתָהּ | kî-mê-nid-dā-ṯāh} ‘as the days of her separation’, emphasizing continuous ritual status.
