Schlachter Bibel (1951)
Alles wird unrein, worauf ein solches Aas fällt; wäre es ein Backofen oder Kochherd, so müßte er eingerissen werden; denn er wäre unrein und müßte euch für unrein gelten.
Elberfelder Bibel (1905)
Und alles, worauf von ihrem Aase fällt, wird unrein sein; Ofen und Herd sollen niedergerissen werden, sie sind unrein, und unrein sollen sie euch sein.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And everything whereupon [any part] of their carcass falleth shall be unclean,.... Before the Scripture seems to speak of anyone of the reptiles perfect, that falling upon anything should pollute it; but here of any part of them, though ever so small, which should, through any accident, fall and light upon anything, even that would render it unclean and unfit for use:

[whether it be] oven, [or] ranges of pots; the one to bake bread in, and the other to boil flesh in, as Aben Ezra observes:

they shall be broken down; and no more made use of for baking and boiling:

[for] they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you; were made hereby unfit for use, and should not be used: the Jewish writers x explain the phrase, "to you", to your necessity, that which they had need of, but now should not use nor receive advantage from; even "to you"; all men, women, and children, as Hiskuni interprets it: all this was ordered to create in them an abhorrence of these creatures, and to make them cautious of eating and touching them, and careful that they come not nigh, or touched, or fell upon anything, since it would give them so much trouble, as well as occasion loss.

x Maimon. & Bartenora in Misn. Edaiot, c. 7. sect. 8.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See Leviticus 2:4. The word rendered “ranges for pots” has been conjectured to mean either an excavated fireplace, fitted to receive a pair of ovens, or a support like a pair of andirons.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 35. Ranges for pots — To understand this, we must observe that the Arabs dig a hole in their tent, about a foot and a half deep; three-fourths of this, says Rauwolff, they lay about with stones, and the fourth part is left open for the purpose of throwing in their fuel. This little temporary building is probably what is here designed by ranges for pots; and this was to be broken down when any unclean thing had fallen upon it. See Harmer, vol. 1., p. 464.
