Haggai 2:13
"Then said Haggai, If one that is unclean by a dead body touch any of these, shall it be unclean? And the priests answered and said, It shall be unclean."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

Then said Haggai,.... To the priests; having nothing to object to their answer; but being satisfied with it, he puts another question: if one that is unclean by a dead

body; by the touch of it, Num 19:11 , touch any of these, shall it be unclean? that is, if such an impure person, who was so in a ceremonial sense, should touch any of the above things, bread, pottage, wine, or oil, or any meat, would not they become unclean thereby, and so not fit for use? and the priests answered and said, it shall be unclean; which was rightly answered; for whatsoever such an unclean person touched was unclean, according to the law, Lev 19:22 . Pollution is more easily and more extensively conveyed than holiness.
