We have rewritten them to save space. Please refer to the
Bible for the actual text. Rashi does not explain these
2 differences. These 2 differences will be explained
in the Golden-Rashi-Rambam series.


*3 The punishment of cut-off applies whether an impure person
entered the Temple (in Moses time) or whether he entered the
not Mosaic, Solomonic temple.

to 'king') but does not apply to dead people.
