Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Leviticus 22:1-9

Those that had a natural blemish, though they were forbidden to do the priests? work, were yet allowed to eat of the holy things: and the Jewish writers say that ?to keep them from idleness they were employed in the wood-room, to pick out that which was worm-eaten, that it might not be used in the fire upon the altar; they might also be employed in the judgment of leprosy:? but, I. Those that were under any ceremonial uncleanness, which possibly they contracted by their own fault, might no so... read more

Say unto them, whosoever he be of all your seed among your generations ,.... Whether male or female, in all succeeding ages, as long as the ceremonial law lasted; for females as well as males of the families of the priests ate of the holy things, provided they had no uncleanness on them, but if they had, they might not: that goeth unto the holy things, which the children of Israel hallow unto the Lord : that approaches to any of the sacrifices which the children of Israel have devoted... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 22:1-9

In the previous chapter, the priests have been commanded to avoid occasions of ceremonial defilement, but there are times in which they must be unclean. At these times they are here instructed that they must abstain from their priestly functions, and not even eat of the priests' portions until they have been cleansed. The command to Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel , in Leviticus 22:2 , must be read in the light of the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 22:1-16

The eating of the holy things. We have seen, in the preceding chapter, that blemishes which precluded a priest from ministering at the altar did not hinder him from eating of the holy things. The ordinary Israelite, therefore, would not, by similar blemishes, be debarred from the privileges of his religion. There are, however, other things which would disqualify. These are now brought under our notice, together with the provisions by which they might be removed. Consider— I. ... read more

Holiness of priests and sacrifices. While much that appertained only to a temporary dispensation, still great principles included in the formal regulations, as— I. RELIGION SANCTIFIES , preserves, and perfects the whole humanity of man. 1 . It preserves the true order—God first, the creature subject to the Creator. 2 .

Priestly disqualifications. cf. Matthew 25:31-46 . We saw that inherited infirmity, such as is mentioned in Matthew 25:18-21 of last chapter, while it excludes from office, does not exclude from sustenance. We now come across a disqualification sufficient to exclude from both office and support, and this is contracted defilement. Any priest venturing before God with uncleanness upon him will be cut off from his presence. We are taught hereby— I. THAT IT IS CONTRACTED , ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 22:3

The service of abstention. There were certain bodily conditions which, under the Levitical institutions, were suggestive of spiritual impurity, and those who suffered from them were accounted ceremonially unclean. Priests thus affected were disqualified for the ministry of the tabernacle, and were deprived, for a time, of sacerdotal privileges: they might not "go unto the holy things." Any priest who was disobedient to this precept would be "cut off from the presence of the Lord." To those... read more

Leviticus 22:3. Goeth unto the holy things To eat them, or to touch them; for if the touch of one of the people having his uncleanness upon him defiled the thing he touched, much more was it so in the priest. Cut off From my ordinances by excommunication: he shall be excluded both from the administration and from the participation of them. Le Clerc takes it for cutting off by death. read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Leviticus 22:1-16

Rules concerning priests (21:1-22:16)Priests carried a heavy responsibility in acting on the people’s behalf in offering their sacrifices, and therefore they had to guard against ceremonial uncleanness. They were to have nothing to do with the burial of the dead, except in the case of close relatives, and were not to make public show of their sorrow by disfiguring themselves. They and their families were to be blameless in all things moral (21:1-9).Rules for the high priest were even stricter... read more
