Treasury of Scripture

In such a vast camp as that of the Israelites, (See notes on

Context

Uncleanness in the Camp

9When the host goes forth against your enemies, then keep you from every wicked thing. 10If there be among you any man, that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chances him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp: 11But it shall be, when evening comes on, he shall wash himself with water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp again. 12You shall have a place also without the camp, where you shall go forth abroad: 13And you shall have a paddle on your weapon; and it shall be, when you will ease yourself abroad, you shall dig therewith, and shall turn back and cover that which comes from you: 14For the LORD your God walks in the middle of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you; therefore shall your camp be holy: that he see no unclean thing in you, and turn away from you.
