“And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats’ hair, and all things made of wood.”
And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood — materials must also be purified, particularly those made from animals (leather, goat-hair, wooden vessels that might absorb corpse-impurity). The comprehensive nature of purification reflects how death-impurity permeates all contact, requiring ritual attention to every item.
