40 וְהָאֹכֵל מִנִּבְלָתָהּ יְכַבֵּס בְּגָדָיו וְטָמֵא עַד־הָעָרֶב וְהַנֹּשֵׂא אֶת־נִבְלָתָהּ יְכַבֵּס בְּגָדָיו וְטָמֵא עַד־הָעָרֶב׃


Commentary on this verse  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 40. And he who appropriates that affection in its dead state, is impure until a change of state takes place, and his external man must be purified; and even when he allows himself to think with favour of that dead state, he is impure until a change.
