Nombres 6:10 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 6:10

And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles or two young
pigeons to the priest
Not a turtledove and a young pigeon, as Ben Gersom observes, but two of one of the sorts, which was the offering of the poorer sort of childbearing women at their purification, and of profluvious persons, men or women, ( Leviticus 12:8 ) ( Leviticus 15:14 Leviticus 15:29 ) ; and this case of the Nazarite's being an uncleanness, could not be purged away but by sacrifice; which was typical of the sacrifice of Christ, by which that unclean thing sin is put away for ever; even the sins of holy things can be moved in no other way; these were to be brought to the priest to be offered by him:

to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation;
for being defiled, the Nazarite might not go into the tabernacle, and therefore was to bring his offering to the door of it, where the priest received it of him.

Nombres 6:10 In-Context

8 Pendant tout le temps de son naziréat, il sera consacré à l'Eternel.
9 Si quelqu'un meurt subitement prĂšs de lui, et que sa tĂȘte consacrĂ©e devienne ainsi souillĂ©e, il se rasera la tĂȘte le jour de sa purification, il se la rasera le septiĂšme jour.
10 Le huitiÚme jour, il apportera au sacrificateur deux tourterelles ou deux jeunes pigeons, à l'entrée de la tente d'assignation.
11 Le sacrificateur sacrifiera l'un comme victime expiatoire, et l'autre comme holocauste, et il fera pour lui l'expiation de son pĂ©chĂ© Ă  l'occasion du mort. Le nazirĂ©en sanctifiera ainsi sa tĂȘte ce jour-lĂ 
12 Il consacrera de nouveau à l'Eternel les jours de son naziréat, et il offrira un agneau d'un an en sacrifice de culpabilité; les jours précédents ne seront point comptés, parce que son naziréat a été souillé.
