The passage demonstrates the complexity of Israel’s purity system and its concern for preserving the holiness of the camp around the sanctuary.

Und Eleasar, der Priester, soll von ihrem Blut mit seinem Finger nehmen und stracks gegen die Hütte des Stifts siebenmal sprengen
Y tomará Eleazar el sacerdote de su sangre con su dedo, y rociará hacia la delantera del tabernáculo del testimonio con la sangre de ella siete veces;
Le sacrificateur Eléazar prendra du sang de la vache avec le doigt, et il en fera sept fois l'aspersion sur le devant de la tente d'assignation.
E prenda il Sacerdote Eleazaro del sangue di essa col suo dito, e spruzzine verso la parte anteriore del Tabernacolo della convenenza sette volte.
E Eleazar, o sacerdote, tomará do seu sangue com o seu dedo, e dele espargirá para a frente da tenda da congregação sete vezes.
以利亞撒 祭司要用指頭蘸這牛的血,向會幕前面彈七次。
