Nu 6:2
6:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When
    either man or woman shall separate [themselves] to vow a vow
    of a {a} Nazarite, to separate [themselves] unto the LORD:

    (a) Who separated themselves from the world, and dedicated
        themselves to God: a figure which was accomplished in
        Christ.

Nu 6:6
6:6 All the days that he separateth [himself] unto the LORD he
    shall come at no {b} dead body.

    (b) As at burials, or mournings.

Nu 6:7
6:7 He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his
    mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die:
    because the consecration of his God [is] upon {c} his head.

    (c) In that he allowed his hair to grow, he signified that
        he was consecrated to God.

Nu 6:9
6:9 And if any man die very suddenly by him, and he hath defiled
    the {d} head of his consecration; then he shall shave his
    head in the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day shall
    he shave it.

    (d) Whose long hair is a sign that he is dedicated to God.

Nu 6:11
6:11 And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and
     the other for a burnt offering, and make an atonement for
     him, for that he sinned by {e} the dead, and shall hallow
     his head that same day.

     (e) By being present where the deceased was.

Nu 6:12
6:12 And he shall {f} consecrate unto the LORD the days of his
     separation, and shall bring a lamb of the first year for a
     trespass offering: but the {g} days that were before shall
     be lost, because his separation was defiled.

     (f) Beginning at the eighth day, when he is purified.
     (g) So that he shall begin his vow anew.

Nu 6:18
6:18 And the Nazarite shall shave the head {h} of his separation
     [at] the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and
     shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and {i}
     put [it] in the fire which [is] under the sacrifice of the
     peace offerings.

     (h) In token that his vow is ended.
     (i) For the hair which was consecrated to the Lord, might
         not be cast into any profane place.

Nu 6:21
6:21 This [is] the law of the Nazarite who hath vowed, [and of]
     his offering unto the LORD for his separation, {k} beside
     [that] that his hand shall get: according to the vow which
     he vowed, so he must do after the law of his separation.

     (k) At the least he shall do this, if he is not able to
         offer more.

Nu 6:23
6:23 Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye
     shall {l} bless the children of Israel, saying unto them,

     (l) That is, pray for them.

Nu 6:27
6:27 And they shall put my {m} name upon the children of Israel;
     and I will bless them.

     (m) They shall pray in my Name for them.
