SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:9

y dije que limpiasen las cámaras, e hice volver allí las alhajas de la Casa de Dios, las ofrendas y el incienso.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 9. Then I commanded, and they cleansed the chambers , etc.] By which it appears there were more than one, or that several were thrown into one; which was done not only by washing them, but as this was a ceremonial uncleanness, contracted by the habitation of an Heathen in them, their purification might be by the water of separation, ( Numbers 19:9) and thither brought I again the vessels of the house of God, with the meat offering and the frankincense ; replaced them where they were before.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-9 - Israel was a peculiar people, and not to mingle with the nations. Se the benefit of publicly reading the word of God; when it is dul attended to, it discovers to us sin and duty, good and evil, and show wherein we have erred. We profit, when we are thus wrought upon to separate from evil. Those that would drive sin out of their hearts, the living temples, must throw out its household stuff, and all the provision made for it; and take away all the things that are the foo and fuel of lust; this is really to mortify it. When sin is cast out of the heart by repentance, let the blood of Christ be applied to it by faith, then let it be furnished with the graces of God's Spirit, for every good work.
