When a person was initiated into a higher state :

when Aaron and his sons were set apart to the priest '
s office ,
they were washed with water previous to their investiture with the priestly robes (
Lev .
8 :
6 ).
(
2 .)
Before the priests approached the altar of God ,
they were required ,
on pain of death ,
to wash their hands and their feet to cleanse them from the soil of common life (
Ex .
30 :
17 -
21 ).
To this practice the Psalmist alludes ,
Ps .

6 .
(

There were washings prescribed for the purpose of cleansing from positive defilement contracted by particular acts .
Of such washings eleven different species are prescribed in the Levitical law (
Lev .
12 -
15 ).
(
4 .)
A fourth class of ablutions is mentioned ,
by which a person purified or absolved himself from the guilt of some particular act .
For example ,
the elders of the nearest village where some murder was committed were required ,
when the murderer was unknown ,
to wash their hands over the expiatory heifer which was beheaded ,
and in doing so to say , "
Our hands have not shed this blood ,
neither have our eyes seen it " (
Deut .
21 :
1 -
9 ).
So also Pilate declared himself innocent of the blood of Jesus by washing his hands (
Matt .
27 :
24 ).
This act of Pilate may not ,
however ,
have been borrowed from the custom of the Jews .
The same practice was common among the Greeks and Romans .
The Pharisees carried the practice of ablution to great excess ,
thereby claiming extraordinary purity (
Matt .
23 :
25 ).
Mark (
7 :
1 -
5 )
refers to the ceremonial ablutions .
The Pharisees washed their hands "
oft ,"
more correctly , "
with the fist " (
R .
V .,
"
diligently "),
or as an old father ,
Theophylact ,
explains it ,
"
up to the elbow ." (
