Bible Question (short): Is "mikvah" in the Law or tradition? |
Question (full): Word study ... mikvah (Strong's 04348) ... Mikvah means "burnt spot, burn scar" and is found in Leviticus 13:24, 25, 28. I did some research. I always check out what people say, to see if it is true. Leviticus 11:36 is quoted. However, the word is miqveh. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering (miqveh) together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good (Gen 1:10). In Exodus 7:19 it is the pools of water, that were turned to blood. It is linen yarn (1Ki 10:28) I didn't find where God had a person get in water. Can you cite in the OT, where God did so? I believe it was oral tradition, not the Law. |
