Concise Bible Dictionary
:
Ceremonial uncleanness had a large place in the Jewish ritual (
Lev. 5:3
3
Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatsoever uncleanness it be that a man shall be defiled withal, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth of it, then he shall be guilty. (Leviticus 5:3)
). It demanded separation from the
camp
for a
time
, and in many cases an
offering
must be brought before there could be restoration. It is typical of the moral uncleanness that separates from
communion
with
God
and the
assembly
.
