Their cleansing Any saddle In ancient Israel, saddles were essential for transportation, especially for those traveling long distances. The mention of a saddle here indicates the practical aspects of daily life and the need for purity in all areas. Saddles were typically made of leather or woven materials, which could easily absorb impurities, making them a focus in the laws of cleanliness. on which the man with the discharge rides will be unclean Persons / Places / Events 1. MosesThe author of Leviticus, who received the laws from God to instruct the Israelites on holiness and cleanliness. 2.

Teaching Points Understanding Ritual PurityThe laws in Leviticus highlight the importance of ritual purity in maintaining a relationship with God. They remind us of God's holiness and our need for spiritual cleanliness. Symbolism of Impurity The unclean saddle symbolizes how impurity can spread and affect others. This serves as a metaphor for sin and its pervasive nature in our lives. Christ's Fulfillment of the Law Jesus' ministry shows that He fulfills the law, offering a deeper cleansing that goes beyond physical impurity to address the heart. Practical Holiness While the specific laws of Leviticus are not binding on Christians today, they call us to live lives of holiness and purity, reflecting God's character. Community Responsibility The communal aspect of these laws reminds us of our responsibility to help maintain the spiritual health of our community, encouraging one another in purity and holiness.(9) And what saddle soever.--Better, and any carriage. The word here translated "saddle" only occurs twice more: viz., 1Kings 5:6 in Hebrew, or Leviticus 4:26 in English, where it is rendered "chariot" in the Authorised Version, and in Song of Solomon 3:10, where it is translated "covering" but where it manifestly denotes the seat inside the palanquin. With the feminine termination the word in question occurs no less than forty-four times, and is invariably translated in the Authorised Version "chariot." What kind of vehicle the masculine form of the expression in question denotes in the three passages in which it occurs must be decided from the context. In Kings, the horses which are used in connection with it show that it was a carriage drawn by animals. In Canticles it is a vehicle, or the essential part of it, carried by men, and this is the kind of vehicle meant in the passage before us. It is the well-known palanquin so largely used in the East. Shall be unclean.--The conveyance used is to be unclean, and hence, is not to be used by any one else. It will be seen that the present text does not say how long the vehicle is to be defiled, though in every other instance the time is fixed. (See Leviticus 15:5-11.) There can, therefore, hardly be any doubt that the reading in the LXX., which has here until evening, is the original one, and that the words have dropped out of the Hebrew text.
