Contextual Overview

¹³Moses, the priest Eleazar, and all the leaders of the community went to meet them outside the camp. ¹⁴But Moses became furious with the officers, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, who were returning from the military campaign. ¹⁵“Have you let every female live?” he asked them. ¹⁶“Yet they are the ones who, at Balaam’s advice, incited the Israelites to unfaithfulness against the Lord in the Peor incident, so that the plague came against the Lord’s community. ¹⁷So now, kill every male among the dependents and kill every woman who has gone to bed with a man, ¹⁸but keep alive for yourselves all the young females who have not gone to bed with a man. ¹⁹“You are to remain outside the camp for seven days.

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.
