Question

Hello, In Metzora 14:46, we learn that one who eats in the house must purify his garments if he ate for the duration of 'k'dei achilat pras'. This also applies to one who lies down for the duration of 'k'dei achilat pras'. And also to one who stays in the house. Regarding staying - is the time also 'k'dei achilat pras'?

Answer

See Rashi there, that even one who stays without eating, if he stayed for the duration of 'k'dei achilat pras', his garments become impure.

Source

See Rashi there for how it is derived.
