Números 19:18

Listen to Números 19:18
18 "Y una persona limpia tomará hisopo y lo mojará en el agua, y lo rociará sobre la tienda y sobre todos los muebles, y sobre las personas que estuvieron allí y sobre aquel que tocó el hueso, o al muerto, o al que moría por causas naturales, o la tumba.

Números 19:18 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 19:18

And a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water,
&c.] Three stalks of hyssop bound together, as the Targum of Jonathan, and this man was to be a clean priest, according to the same; but it does not seem necessary that he should be a priest, but that anyone free from ceremonial pollution might do it:

and sprinkle it upon the tent;
where there was a dead body: but this, we are told, is to be understood not of a tent made of wood, or stone, or clay, but made of anything woven, as linen: or of skins F21:

and upon all the vessels;
in such a tent, that is, open ones, as before observed:

and upon the persons that were there:
when the man died in it, or came into it since, and while the dead body was in it;

and upon him that touched a bone;
of a dead man, or, as the Targum of Jonathan, the bone of a living man that is separated from him:

or one slain, or one dead;
slain with a sword, or dead of the pestilence, as the same Targum, or of any other disease, or in any other way:

or a grave;
or the covering or side of one, as the same Targum adds.

Números 19:18 In-Context

16 "De igual manera, todo el que en campo abierto toque a uno que ha sido muerto a espada, o que ha muerto de causas naturales, o que toque hueso humano, o tumba, quedará inmundo durante siete días.
17 "Entonces para la persona inmunda tomarán de las cenizas de lo que se quemó para purificación del pecado, y echarán sobre ella agua corriente en una vasija.
18 "Y una persona limpia tomará hisopo y lo mojará en el agua, y lo rociará sobre la tienda y sobre todos los muebles, y sobre las personas que estuvieron allí y sobre aquel que tocó el hueso, o al muerto, o al que moría por causas naturales, o la tumba.
19 "Entonces la persona limpia rociará sobre el inmundo el tercero y el séptimo día; el séptimo día lo purificará de la inmundicia, y él lavará su ropa y se bañará en agua, y quedará limpio al llegar la tarde.
20 "Pero el hombre que sea inmundo y que no se haya purificado a sí mismo de su inmundicia, esa persona será cortada de en medio de la asamblea, porque ha contaminado el santuario del SEÑOR; el agua para la impureza no se ha rociado sobre él; es inmundo.
