9Sitten joku, joka on puhdas, kootkoon hiehon tuhan ja pankoon sen talteen leirin ulkopuolelle puhtaaseen paikkaan. Ja säilytettäköön se israelilaisten seurakunnalle puhdistusvettä varten. Tämä on syntiuhri.

Numbers 19 details the elaborate ritual of the red heifer, a unique sacrifice designed to purify those who became ceremonially unclean through contact with a dead body. This chapter outlines the specific requirements for the unblemished red cow, its sacrifice outside the camp, and the collection of its ashes. These ashes, mixed with water, formed the “water of purification,” essential for restoring an unclean person to the community. The ritual highlights the pervasive nature of sin and death's defilement, and God's provision for cleansing within the old covenant.
