John Gill's Bible Commentary Ver. 9. And what saddle soever he sitteth upon that hath the issue , etc.] When he rides upon any beast, horse, ass, or camel, whatever is put upon the creature, and he sits upon it, the saddle, and whatever appertains to it, the housing and girdle: shall be unclean ; and not fit for another to use, but be defiling to him, as follows.
Matthew Henry Commentary
- Laws concerning ceremonial uncleanness.
--We need not be curious in explaining these laws; but have reason to be thankful that we need fear no defilement, except that of sin, no need ceremonial and burdensome purifications. These laws remind us tha God sees all things, even those which escape the notice of men. The great gospel duties of faith and repentance are here signified, and the great gospel privileges of the application of Christ's blood to ou souls for our justification, and his grace for our sanctification _________________________________________________
