He is to sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times to cleanse it and consecrate it from the uncleanness of the Israelites.

Numbers 8:7 הַזֵּ֥ה spatter

This is what you must do to cleanse them: Sprinkle them with the water of purification. Have them shave their whole bodies and wash their clothes, and so purify themselves.

Here: Spatter or flick liquid in drops. This is the technical verb for applying purifying liquid in the rites (Lev 14:7; Num 19:18–19). The supplied data parses it as a command. The same form can also be an infinitive used as a command, and the meaning is the same either way: Moses himself does the sprinkling.

Eleazar the priest is to take some of its blood on his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the Tent of Meeting.

Numbers 19:18 וְהִזָּ֤ה and he will spatter [it]

Numbers 19:19 וְהִזָּ֤ה and he will spatter [it]

The man who is ceremonially clean is to sprinkle the unclean person on the third day and on the seventh day. After he purifies the unclean person on the seventh day, the one being cleansed must wash his clothes and bathe in water, and that evening he will be clean.

Here: "And he shall spatter [it]." The verb form means "cause drops to fly": the clean man flicks the water off the hyssop bundle (v.18) onto the person. The object, the purification water, is understood from the previous verse.

Numbers 19:21 וּמַזֵּ֤ה and [the] [one who] spatters

This is a permanent statute for the people: The one who sprinkles the water of purification must wash his clothes, and whoever touches the water of purification will be unclean until evening.

so He will sprinkle many nations. Kings will shut their mouths because of Him. For they will see what they have not been told, and they will understand what they have not heard.

Here: The disputed word of the verse. Everywhere else this causative form means a priest sprinkling blood, oil or water to purify or consecrate. Here the grammar and the parallel with 'appalled' in v.14 lead many to read a rare second sense, 'make leap up', meaning 'startle'. The supplied data takes this second sense ('he will startle'). See Studies and Debates.

Isaiah 63:3 וְיֵ֤ז and it spattered
