Leviticus 11:36 meaning and explanation
Nevertheless, a spring or cistern containing water will remain clean, but one who touches a carcass in it will be unclean.
Leviticus 11:36, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
These instructions come from the LORD through Moses and Aaron to Israel in the wilderness, spelling out which foods are clean and how uncleanness spreads through contact with carcasses. Verse 36 draws a limit: a spring or cistern, a living source or stored supply of water, stays clean even if a dead creature falls into it, because water is essential to life and cannot simply be discarded.
