Haggai2:13
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 .
Now the second case is proposed for resolution, &c.
Ceremonially, or legally polluted, and unclean.
For such touch, though at unawares, did pollute, Numb. 19.13.
Bread or Pottage, Wine, or Oyl, or Meat.
Shall that which the unclean (by touch of the dead) doth touch, become unclean, or no? Though a mediate touch of what is holy will not make holy, yet will not a mediate touch of what is polluted defile whatsoever it toucheth?
It is resolved affirmatively, it shall be polluted.
