Commentary on Numbers 6:12

The command to 'consecrate unto the LORD the days of his separation' after defilement means restarting the vow from the beginning. The Hebrew hizir (consecrate/separate) indicates renewed dedication. The phrase 'the days that were before shall be lost' (verse 12) teaches that interrupted consecration cannot simply resume—it requires fresh beginning. This severe standard reveals the impossibility of maintaining perfect holiness, pointing to our need for Christ whose consecration was never interrupted, providing perfect obedience imputed to believers (Romans 5:19).
