Exegesis
This pattern repeats in the second conjunct ve-kol-hakeli-asher-teshev-alav {וְכָל־הַכְּלִי אֲשֶׁר תֵּשֵׁב עָלָיו | wə-kol-hak·kē·lî-ăšer-tē·šēḇ-ʿalāyw} “and every vessel on which she sits,” followed by the predicate tameh {טָמֵא | ṭā·mēʾ} “be unclean” and the parallel simile ke-tumat-niddatah {כְּטֻמְאַת־נִדָּתָהּ | kə-tum·āṯ-nid·dāh} “like the impurity of her menstruation.” This chiastic parallelism (bed/vessel; lie/sit; discharge/impurity) reinforces the legal symmetry of ritual contamination.

In context — Leviticus 15:26
Every bed on which she lies all the days of her discharge shall be to her like the bed of her menstruation, and every vessel on which she sits shall be unclean for her, as the uncleanness of her menstruation.
