Numbers 6:6-8 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Our dear LORD here manifested his holiness, for though touching a dead body, as in the case of those he raised from the dead, yet he himself contracted no uncleanness! How sweet and delightful it is to see, that in all he did and suffered for us, it conveyed no shadow of taint to him. He was made sin, nay, a curse for us; but yet knew no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth! How precious that scripture! 2 Corinthians 5:21. Reader! let you and I live upon it.

Numbers 6:6-8

6 All the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall come at no dead body.

7 He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because the consecrationc of his God is upon his head.

8 All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD.
