²⁰ Every winged four-footed thing which goes on the earth is disgusting to you; ²¹ But of the winged four-footed things, those which have long legs for jumping on the earth you may have for food; ²² Such as all the different sorts of locust. ²³ But all other winged four-footed things which go on the earth are disgusting to you. ²⁴ By these you will be made unclean; anyone touching their dead bodies will be unclean till evening: ²⁵ Whoever takes away the dead body of one of them is to have his clothing washed, and will be unclean till evening. ²⁶ Every beast, in the horn of whose foot there is not a complete division, and whose food does not come back, is unclean to you: anyone touching one of these will be unclean. ²⁷ Any four-footed beast which goes on the ball of its foot, is unclean to you: anyone touching the dead body of one of these will be unclean till evening. ²⁸ Anyone who takes away the dead body of one of these is to have his clothing washed and be unclean till evening. ²⁹ And these are unclean to you among things which go low down on the earth; the weasel and the mouse and the great lizard, and animals of that sort;

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And every earthen vessel, whereinto [any] of them falleth,.... Any of the above eight reptiles, should they by chance fall into the midst an earthen vessel:

whatsoever [is] in it shall be unclean; if it only by falling touched the outside of it, it was not unclean; but if it fell into it, then whatever was contained in it was unclean; for, as Jarchi says, an earthen vessel does not pollute or receive pollution, but from the air of it u, from its inside:

and ye shall break it; other vessels might be put into water and rinsed, and so be cleansed, but earthen vessels, being of no great value, were to be broken in pieces: an emblem this, as Ainsworth suggests, of the dissolution of our bodies, which are as earthen vessels, and of the destruction of sin thereby, and of the entire removal of it by death.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 33. And every earthen vessel — Such pitchers as are commonly used for drinking out of, and for holding liquids. M. De la Roque observes that hair-sacks, trunks, and baskets, covered with skin, are used among the travelling Arabs to carry their household utensils in, which are kettles or pots, great wooden bowls, hand-mills, and pitchers. It is very likely that these are nearly the same with those used by the Israelites in their journeyings in the wilderness, for the customs of these people do not change.
