11 But it shall be, when evening cometh on, he shall wash himself with water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp again.
11 But as evening approaches he is to wash himself, and at sunset he may return to the camp.
11 but when evening comes, he shall bathe himself in water, and as the sun sets, he may come inside the camp.
11 until evening when he can wash himself, returning to the camp at sunset.
11 But it shall be, when evening comes, that he shall wash with water; and when the sun sets, he may come into the camp.
11 Toward evening he must bathe himself, and at sunset he may return to the camp.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Deuteronomy 23:11
Commentary on Deuteronomy 23:9-14
(Read Deuteronomy 23:9-14)
The camp of the Lord must have nothing offensive in it. If there must be this care taken to preserve the body clean, much more should we be careful to keep the mind pure.
