利未記 22:3 CUNPTS

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 22:1-33

NO PROFANING OF SEPARATED THINGS (vv. 1-16) Aaron and his sons were always in close proximity to those things that had been separated for sacred purposes. They were therefore to be careful as to their contact with these things, lest they should profane the name of the Lord. If one had contacted any uncleanness, he must be cleansed from this before touching the holy things. A number of things are listed as to what would make one unclean. This was only ceremonial uncleanness, but is, as we... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Leviticus 22:1-33

PENALTIES FOR PEOPLE AND PRIESTS The twentieth chapter is of deep interest as showing what infinite wisdom and love has considered a just punishment for certain crimes. These crimes are still committed in civilized communities but a different view of their treatment seems to exist. Are human governments in modern times wiser and better than this theocracy where Jehovah ruled? Why does not this code obtain in Christian nations, since God has revealed it and such nations are supposed to... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Leviticus 22:3

Nothing can more decidedly point out the universal taint of evil, than what is here adverted to in the unhallowed uncleanness of the priests. And as to this law, which separated during seasons of uncleanness, not only the people but the priests also, can anything more fully show that all access to GOD is precluded, but through him who is the only way; and but by whom none can come to the FATHER. John 14:6 . read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Leviticus 22:3

Approacheth, &c. This is to give us to understand, with what purity of soul we are to approach to the blessed sacrament, of which these meats that had been offered in sacrifice were a figure. (Challoner) --- Such as were unclean either fasted till the evening, or ate unconsecrated meats till they were purified. --- Perish. The Rabbins say, by the hands of the other priests. The judges could only condemn him to be whipped. If his crime were secret, the punishment was left to God. (Selden,... read more

Warning Against Profanation of Hallowed Things v. 1. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, v. 2. Speak unto Aaron and to his sons that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, and that they profane not My holy name in those things which they hallow unto Me. I am the Lord. The priests were not to profane the holy gifts of the people by approaching them at a time when they themselves were in a condition of uncleanness, which made their priestly services... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 22:1-33

Instructions already given are now repeated with greater detail and wider application. Not only must the priest himself be free from blemish and defilement, he must see to it that all that which he offered was to be of h e same character. Yet again, he was not to exercise hospitality toward those who were unclean or strangers to the covenant of the things which pertained to the House of his God. These stringent instructions closed with a reaffirmation of the reason, which had been given in... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 22:2-9

For Priests, Discernment of Uncleanness Is Vital. They Must Not Approach Yahweh While Unclean Lest They Die (Leviticus 22:2-9 ). Leviticus 22:2 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, which they hallow to me, and that they profane not my holy name. I am Yahweh.” Aaron and his sons must ensure that they see themselves as separate from the holy things of the children of Israel, which the children of Israel hallow to Yahweh.... read more

Leviticus 22:1-Ruth : . Further Restrictions as to the priests’ use of holy things, i.e. objects sacrificed or vowed. Temporary uncleanness, touching a corpse ( Numbers 5:2 *) or an unclean object, as distinct from bodily defects, prevents priests from eating these things, while it lasts. This rule applies to leprosy, which is also (Leviticus 14) temporary. Animals which have died naturally or been killed by other animals are not to be eaten at all by the priests ( cf. on Leviticus 17:15,... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Leviticus 22:3

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. From my presence; either from the place of my presence and from my ordinances by excommunication: he shall be excluded both from the administration and from the participation of them. Or, from the people, among whom I am present, which commonly is expressed by cutting off from his people. Or, from the land of... read more
