ExplanationCommentary
Verse 9. Hyssop, which was used in sprinkling lepers, and so forth (Leviticus 14:6) not that the like ceremony, or even sacrifice, would suffice to heal the wound of the soul. Sincere contrition, (verse 18, 19) and the virtue of Christ’s blood, are necessary. Calmet. Hebrews 9:19.—The heat (Numbers 19) and operation of this sovereign medicine was shewn to the prophet. John 19. Worthington.—The sprinkling of the priest might be of service, if the heart was contrite. Hebrews 9:13. Menochius.
