Numbers 19 · Grade 2

Special Water

Name Date

Read the Story

God told Moses to find a red cow. It could not have anything wrong with it.

The cow was burned outside the camp. The priest put cedar wood, a plant called hyssop, and red yarn into the fire. The ashes were saved and mixed with water.

If someone touched a person who had died, he was not clean for seven days. He was sprinkled with the special water on day three and day seven. Then he was clean. God gave a way to be clean again.

Memory Verse

“The priest shall take cedar wood, hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the middle of the burning of the heifer.”
