Commentary on Numbers 19:2
The red heifer ordinance presents a unique paradox in Levitical law: the purifying agent itself causes ceremonial uncleanness to those who prepare it (v.7-8). This foreshadows Christ's paradoxical work - He who knew no sin became sin for us (2 Cor 5:21). The Hebrew 'parah adummah' (red heifer) must be completely red, without blemish, and never yoked - symbolizing the sinless, unblemished Christ who took our yoke upon Himself. The ashes mixed with water created 'waters of separation' (mei niddah), pointing to baptism's cleansing power through Christ's sacrifice.
