Commentary
In Numbers 19, the Lord gives instructions to Moses and Aaron regarding the purification of those who have come in contact with a dead body. The Lord instructs Moses and Aaron to take a red heifer without blemish, and to slaughter it outside the camp. The blood of the heifer is to be sprinkled seven times before the Lord, and its ashes are to be kept for the purification of the people. The Lord then gives instructions for the purification of those who have come in contact with a dead body. The person who has come in contact with the dead body is to be sprinkled with the water of purification, which is made from the ashes of the red heifer. The person is then to be considered clean. The chapter ends with the Lord's instructions to Moses and Aaron regarding the disposal of the ashes of the red heifer. The ashes are to be kept outside the camp, and anyone who touches them is to be considered unclean until evening. This chapter serves as a reminder of the importance of holiness and purity in the eyes of the Lord. It also serves as a reminder of the need to be careful when coming in contact with the dead, as it can lead to uncleanness. The chapter also serves as a reminder of the need to be obedient to the Lord's commands, as disobedience can lead to uncleanness.
