To this rite the apostle Paul, in his epistle to the Hebrews. (Heb 9:13-14), pointedly alludes: "For if," says he, "the blood of bulls and of goats," alluding, probably, to the sin-offerings and the scape-goat, "and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh; how much more shall the blood of Christ, who, through the eternal Spirit, offered himself without spot unto God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God." Num 19:13, Num 19:20-21, Num 6:12, Num 31:23-24; Lev 15:20; Zech 13:1; 2Cor 7:1 wash his Num 19:7-8, Num 19:19 it shall be Num 15:15-16; Exod 12:49; Rom 3:29-30; Col 3:11 toucheth the dead He who touched a dead beast was only unclean for one day (Lev 11:12, Lev 11:27, Lev 11:39); but he who touches a dead man is unclean for seven days. This was certainly designed to show the peculiar impurity and sinfulness of man, and the hatefulness of sin, seven times worse than the vilest animal!

So we say to fleece, and to skin, which do not signify to add a fleece, or a skin, but to take one away.
