Then he may enter the camp, but he shall remain unclean until evening. 8 The one who burns the heifer must also wash his clothes and bathe his body in water, and he shall remain unclean until evening. 9 A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer and place them outside the camp in a clean place. They shall be kept for the Israelite community for use in the water of purification; it is a purification offering. 10 The one who gathers the ashes of the heifer must also wash his clothes, and he shall remain unclean until evening. This shall be a lasting statute for the Israelites and for the foreigner living among them. 11 Whoever touches the dead body of any person shall be unclean for seven days. 12 He must purify himself with the water on the third day and on the seventh day, then he will be clean. But if he does not purify himself on the third day and the seventh day, he will not be clean. 13 Anyone who touches a dead body, the lifeless body of a person who has died, and does not purify himself, defiles the LORD's tabernacle. That person must be cut off from Israel because the water of purification was not sprinkled on him. He remains unclean; his uncleanness is still upon him. 14 This is the law: When a person dies in a tent, everyone who enters the tent and everyone who is in the tent shall be unclean for seven days. 15 And every open container that does not have a lid tightly fastened on it shall be unclean. 16 Anyone in the open field who touches someone who was killed with a sword, a dead body, a human bone, or a grave shall be unclean for seven days. 17 For the unclean person, they shall take some of the ashes from the burnt purification offering, and fresh water shall be added to them in a container. 18 Then a clean person shall take hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, on all the vessels, on the people who were there, and on anyone who touched a bone, a slain person, a dead body, or a grave. 19 The clean person shall sprinkle the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day. On the seventh day, he shall purify him. Then the one being purified must wash his clothes and bathe in water, and he will be clean by evening. 20 But if someone is unclean and does not purify himself, that person shall be cut off from the assembly because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD. The water of purification has not been sprinkled on him; he is unclean. 21 This shall be a permanent statute for them. The one who sprinkles the water of purification must wash his clothes, and anyone who touches the water of purification will remain unclean until evening.

    6When these things were arranged this way, the priests would regularly enter the first room of the tabernacle to perform their ministry.

    7But only the high priest entered the second room, and only once a year, never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.

    18This is why even the first covenant was not inaugurated without blood.

    19For when every commandment of the law had been proclaimed by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, along with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,

    20saying, 'This is the blood of the covenant that God has commanded you to follow.'

    21In the same way, he sprinkled with the blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels used in worship.

    22Indeed, according to the Law, almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

    23Therefore, it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves require better sacrifices than these.

    24For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with hands, which is only a copy of the true one, but He entered heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.

    25Nor did He enter to offer Himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place year after year with blood that is not his own.

    26Otherwise, He would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But now He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
