15 Heb “them”; the referent (the previously mentioned items which were under the unclean person) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
16 Heb “And all who the man with the discharge touches in him and his hands he has not rinsed in water.”
17 The Hebrew term כְּלִי (kéli) can mean “vessel” (v. 12a) or “utensil, implement, article” (v. 12b). An article of clay would refer to a vessel or container of some sort, while one made of wood would refer to some kind of tool or instrument.
