Numeri 12:12 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 12:12

Let her not be as one dead
As she was in a ceremonial sense, being to be shut up and excluded from the society of people, and as defiling by touching as a dead carcase; and, in a natural sense, her flesh, by the disease upon her, was become as dead flesh, putrid and rotten, and unless miraculously cured it would issue in her death:

of whom the flesh is half consumed, when he cometh out of his mother's
womb;
like an abortive, or one stillborn, that has been dead some time in its mother's womb; and therefore when brought forth its flesh is almost wasted away, or at least half consumed: and in such a plight and condition was Miriam already, or quickly would be, through the force of her disease.

Numeri 12:12 In-Context

10 e la nuvola si ritirò di sopra alla tenda; ed ecco che Maria era lebbrosa, bianca come neve; Aaronne guardò Maria, ed ecco era lebbrosa.
11 E Aaronne disse a Mosè: "Deh, signor mio, non ci far portare la pena di un peccato che abbiamo stoltamente commesso, e di cui siamo colpevoli.
12 Deh, ch’ella non sia come il bimbo nato morto, la cui carne è già mezzo consumata quand’esce dal seno materno!"
13 E Mosè gridò all’Eterno dicendo: "Guariscila, o Dio, te ne prego!"
14 E l’Eterno rispose a Mosè: "Se suo padre le avesse sputato in viso, non ne porterebbe ella la vergogna per sette giorni? Stia dunque rinchiusa fuori del campo sette giorni; poi, vi sarà di nuovo ammessa".
