Numbers 5:3
Context5:3 You must expel both men and women; you must put them outside the camp, so that 1 they will not defile their camps, among which I live.”
Numbers 35:34
Context35:34 Therefore do not defile the land that you will inhabit, in which I live, for I the Lord live among the Israelites.”
1 tn The imperfect tense functions here as a final imperfect, expressing the purpose of putting such folks outside the camp. The two preceding imperfects (repeated for emphasis) are taken here as instruction or legislation.
