Numbers Five - Defiled Outside
"And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 'Command the children of Israel that they put out of the camp every leper, everyone who has a discharge, and whoever becomes defiled by a corpse. You shall put out both male and female; you shall put them outside the camp, that they may not defile their camps in the midst of which I dwell.' And the children of Israel did so, and put them outside the camp; as the Lord spoke to Moses, so the children of Israel did," Numbers 5:1-4, NKJV. #DefiledOutside
While Jesus often welcomed the lame, the blind and the sick for healing while He walked on earth, this wasn't always the case; in the past, people with infirmities weren't told to come near, but to stay away and outside of the camp of God and the temple.
2 Samuel 5:6-8, Mark 5:1-6 and Acts 3:1-6.
