Gill's Notes on the Bible
But the man that shall be unclean,.... By touching any dead body, bone, or grave:
and shall not purify himself; with the water of purification:
that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation:
:-.
because he hath defiled the sanctuary of the Lord: by going into it in his uncleanness:
the water of separation hath not been sprinkled upon him, he is unclean; and will remain so, for nothing else could purify him, see
Numbers 19:13.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
One practical effect of attaching defilement to a dead body, and to all that touched it, etc., would be to insure early burial, and to correct a practice not uncommon in the East, of leaving the deal to be devoured by the wild beasts.
