Contextual Overview

¹³ Then Moses and Eleazar the priest and the chiefs of the people went out to them before they had come into the tent-circle. ¹⁴ And Moses was angry with the chiefs of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds who had come back from the war. ¹⁵ And Moses said to them, Why have you kept all the women safe? ¹⁶ It was these who, moved by Balaam, were the cause of Israel's sin against the Lord in the question of Peor, because of which disease came on the people of the Lord. ¹⁷ So now put every male child to death, and every woman who has had sex relations with a man. ¹⁸ But all the female children who have had no sex relations with men, you may keep for yourselves. ¹⁹ You yourselves will have to keep outside the tent-circle for seven days, anyone of you who has put any person to death or come near a dead body; and on the third day and on the seventh day make yourselves and your prisoners clean. ²⁰ And every bit of clothing, and anything made of leather or goats' hair or wood, you are to make clean. ²¹ Then Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who had been to the fight, This is the rule of the law which the Lord has given to Moses: ²² But gold and silver and brass and iron and tin and lead,

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead. These are excepted, and, though unclean, are not to be purified by washing, but in another way, by fire, as follows; all these metals were well known in those early times, and were made use of for instruments and vessels of various sorts.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Brass - Render copper. See Genesis 4:22 note. The verse is curious as illustrating the variety of metals in use at this early date for domestic purposes. All these metals were common in Egypt centuries before the date of the Exodus.
