The notion of impurity is deeply rooted in the Old Testament, particularly within the Mosaic Law, and extends into the New Testament with spiritual implications.<br><br><b>Old Testament Context</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, impurity is frequently associated with ceremonial uncleanness. The Book of Leviticus provides extensive guidelines on what constitutes impurity, including certain foods, bodily discharges, skin diseases, and contact with dead bodies. For instance, <a href="/bsb/leviticus/11.htm">Leviticus 11</a> outlines dietary laws, declaring certain animals impure and unfit for consumption: "You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses; they are unclean for you" (<a href="/leviticus/11-8.htm">Leviticus 11:8</a>).<br><br>Impurity also extends to moral and ethical dimensions. The Israelites were called to be a holy people, set apart for God, and thus were instructed to avoid practices that would defile them spiritually. This included idolatry, sexual immorality, and other sinful behaviors. The prophets often rebuked Israel for their spiritual impurity, equating it with unfaithfulness to God.<br><br><b>New Testament Context</b><br><br>In the New Testament, Jesus and the apostles address the concept of impurity, often shifting the focus from external observances to the condition of the heart. Jesus challenged the Pharisees' emphasis on ritual purity, teaching that true impurity comes from within: "What comes out of a man, that is what defiles him" (<a href="/mark/7-20.htm">Mark 7:20</a>). This teaching underscores the importance of inner purity over mere external compliance.<br><br>The Apostle Paul further elaborates on spiritual impurity in his epistles, warning believers against behaviors that defile the body and spirit. In <a href="/galatians/5-19.htm">Galatians 5:19-21</a>, Paul lists "sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery" among the acts of the flesh that are contrary to the life led by the Spirit. He exhorts Christians to live in holiness, emphasizing that their bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (<a href="/1_corinthians/6-19.htm">1 Corinthians 6:19-20</a>).<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>Theologically, impurity is understood as a barrier to fellowship with God. The sacrificial system in the Old Testament provided a means for atonement and cleansing from impurity, pointing forward to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Through His death and resurrection, believers are offered purification from sin and are called to live in righteousness.<br><br>The call to purity is a recurring theme throughout Scripture, reflecting God's desire for His people to be holy as He is holy (<a href="/1_peter/1-16.htm">1 Peter 1:16</a>). This call encompasses both moral and spiritual dimensions, urging believers to pursue a life that honors God in thought, word, and deed.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
