Commentary on Numbers 12:15
The record 'Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days' emphasizes the completion of her discipline. The temporal nature—'seven days'—shows the discipline was restorative, not final. The purpose was purification and restoration, not permanent exclusion. This models church discipline's goal: restoring repentant sinners (Galatians 6:1), not condemning them. The time limit prevented indefinite punishment. After seven days, she was fully restored to fellowship, prefiguring how Christ's discipline of His children, though painful, works repentance and restoration (Hebrews 12:11).
