FOUR THOUSAND years ago, the laws of public health were articulated that work to keep communities clean.
RITUAL PURITY AND SANITATION -- Do not pollute nor allow pollution.
Dispose of cool foods having become defiled by contact with unclean things (Lev. 11:34).
Have a place outside the camp for sanitary purposes (Deut. 23:13-15); keep that place sanitary with mulch, sand and lime.
A corpse defiles (Num. 19:11-16). The ["lustral"] waters of separation defile one who is clean, and cleanse the unclean from pollution by a dead
body (Num. 19:19-22), as the procedure to sanctify the household of one who has died.
Send unclean individuals out of the Camp, which is the area immediately surrounding the Tabernacle (Num. 5:2).
Touching the carcass of a beast that died of itself is unclean (Lev. 11:39). Cover the blood of undomesticated animals (deer, etc.) and of fowl that
have been killed (Lev. 17:13).
A menstruating or lying-in woman or a woman having a running issue, defiles and is unclean (Lev. 12:2-5; 15:19-27) and needs isolation. Purification
from all kinds of defilement shall be effected by immersion in the waters of a mikvah (Lev. 15:16).
A man having a running issue, defiles (Lev. 15:1-15). The seed of copulation defiles (Lev. 15:16).
Carry out the ordinance of the Red Heifer ("Parah Adumah") so that its ashes will always be available (Num. 19:9), for the gesture of restoring a
healthful place.
CLEANLINESS -- Be clean people, physically (Lev 11:36; 12:8; 13:13, 17, 37, 39, 40, 41, 58; 14:53; 15:28; Num 9:13; 19:9; 31:24). Eat in a clean
place (Lev 10:14; Num 19:9). Be symbolically clean (Lev 16:30; Num 19:12) and keep the clan clean (Num 35:33) by expelling those who practice sin and
evil.
Leprosy, AIDS, hepatitis, tuberculosis, pneumonia, streptococci are all unclean and defile (Lev. 13:2-46). Lepers shall be universally recognized as
such by the prescribed marks. So too, all other unclean persons should declare themselves as such (Lev. 13:45). A leprous garment, bedding and house
is unclean and defiles (Lev. 13:47-49; 14:36-46; Num. 27:8-11). The procedure of cleansing leprosy, whether of a man or of a house, takes place with
cedar-wood, hyssop, scarlet thread, two birds, and running water (Lev. 14:1-7). Do not drove off the hair of the scall (Lev. 13:33) of leprosy; but
the leper shall shave all his hair (Lev. 14:9). Do not pluck out the marks of leprosy (Deut. 24:8).
1. There's no excuse for human beings not knowing how to keep themselves and their environment clean.
2. Utilizing raised bed and greenhouse agricultural skills, it doesn't take a lot of land to feed a family, a community or a neighborhood.
The whole problem of "over-population" is contrived by elites, to maintain control over currencies and resources. Just LOOK at the amount of empty
land, flying in the US from coast-to-coast you can see out an airplane window. Over-population is a scam.
