Today's Reading
Numbers 5-6; Revelation 16
Numbers 5.1-4 discusses purity in terms of isolating those who had infectious skin diseases, or a discharge of any kind from the rest of the camp. This was to keep the community healthy.
Numbers 5.5-10 discusses restitution for wrongs. v. 11-31 has the test the priest must do to see if the wife was unfaithful.
Numbers 6 talks about the Nazirite vow. The person, man or woman, who is a Nazirite makes a vow of separation to the Lord. He must abstain from wine and other fermented drinks or eat anything from the grapevine. The person must let the hair of his head grow long, he cannot go near a dead body even it is his parent's. Check the commentaries below for further details.
Aaron is suppose to bless the people with this benediction that is well known to Christians and is very comforting to hear it.
Num 6.24-25 It is not only a great benediction but the words make you realize it is God who doing the work in your life, blessing, keeping, making His presence known to you and giving you His peace. This was probably the first benediction given to a community of people.
