Thematic Bible: Uses of, in purification


Thematic Bible



For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are unclean purifies them physically,

Then someone who is unclean is to gather the ashes of the heifer and lay them outside the camp in a clean place. This is to be done for the community of Israel to use for water of purification from sin. Whoever gathers the ashes of the heifer is to wash his clothes and is to remain unclean until the evening. This ordinance is to remain for the benefit of both the Israelis and the resident aliens who live among them."

"Now as for the unclean, they are to take ashes from the burning sin offering, and pour running water on it inside a vessel.
