Numbers 19:10 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 19:10

And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his
clothes
Whom the Targum of Jonathan calls a priest, though it does not seem necessary he should be one:

and be unclean until the even; (See Gill on Numbers 19:7);

and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger
that sojourneth among them, for a statute for ever;
until the Messiah came, whose sufferings and death are for the expiation of, and purification for the sins of Jews and Gentiles, of all the people of God throughout the world, signified by the burning of this heifer; see ( 1 John 2:2 ) .

Numbers 19:10 In-Context

8 sed et ille qui conbuserit eam lavabit vestimenta sua et corpus et inmundus erit usque ad vesperam
9 colliget autem vir mundus cineres vaccae et effundet eos extra castra in loco purissimo ut sint multitudini filiorum Israhel in custodiam et in aquam aspersionis quia pro peccato vacca conbusta est
10 cumque laverit qui vaccae portaverat cineres vestimenta sua inmundus erit usque ad vesperum habebunt hoc filii Israhel et advenae qui habitant inter eos sanctum iure perpetuo
11 qui tetigerit cadaver hominis et propter hoc septem diebus fuerit inmundus
12 aspergetur ex hac aqua die tertio et septimo et sic mundabitur si die tertio aspersus non fuerit septimo non poterit emundari
