>Are you suggesting that Jesus touched His own dead body while He was dead?
Think about that statement for a moment. Think long and hard about it. Being physically leviticul priesthood ceremonially unclean is not neccessarily a sin since you can be purified see numbers 19:17-19. Secondly, is there something not permitting such a conclusion in the word of God? In various parts of the word of God being ceromonially unclean is not the same as sin see zacheria 13:1, sin and uncleanness are not the same there for example. Also see acts 11:8-10, purified things that were unclean are not a sin to eat. Thirdly is that being physically pre-cleaned via the ointment means Jesus was never unclean in the first place anyways. There's a special exception made in leviticus 5. Let's go through it step by step so you might yet understand. In Numbers 19:11-12
>He that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days.
>He shall purify himself with it on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean: but if he purify not himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean.
Ok so a dead body is unclean, presumably as its not directly stated. But then there's Numbers 19:16 and 19
>And whosoever toucheth one that is slain with a sword in the open fields, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.
>And a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and upon the persons that were there, and upon him that touched a bone, or one slain, or one dead, or a grave:
So how could Jesus, who was dead and yet liveth Revelation 1:18, touch His own grave waking up from death? Numbers 19:22 hints at it
>And whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean; and the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean until even.
Ah so the soul is implied here. In leviticus 5:2
>Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, whether it be a carcase of an unclean beast, or a carcase of unclean cattle, or the carcase of unclean creeping things, and if it be hidden from him; he also shall be unclean, and guilty.
That spells it out quite plainly. Since Jesus's soul left with His Spirit in matthew 27:50 we then get verses like luke 24:12
>Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.
Why leave His clothes behind? because they might have been unclean but He Himself is clean. Don't need to wash clothes you don't have right.
See verses like romans 14:14
>I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
I don't think Jesus was unclean at any point. But His dead body you might be able to argue was "unclean" at the time of death, but did not affect His soul whatsoever as the physical body had already been pre-purified. This is all very legalistic and a very literal interpretation of the events. You could of course just hand wave it and say Jesus floated in the tomb as to not touch the grave or what have you. I'm probably missing something or reading too much into this particular set of passages. Jesus Christ the same today yesterday and forever Hebrews 13:8. That would mean the nail marks in John 20:25-27 are still there. And perchance what is mentioned in john 19:34 is still there as well? You could argue what is mentioned in john 19:34 is the "water of separation" as well for the ceremonial purposes of the leviticus priesthood. Remember that nobody but Jesus could be justified by such because hebrews chapters 7-8 exist and of course what He says in matthew 5:17-18.
