Leviticus 22:6 Commentary - Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers (Old and New Testaments)
(6) The soul which hath touched.—Better, the man who hath, that is, the priest for whom these laws are here enacted. Hence the ancient Chaldee version renders it “the man a priest.”
Shall be unclean until even.—When the day ends and another begins (see Lev. 11:24-32), and when he had to immerse his body in water.
