And Things Of The Bible -- Baths
The use of the bath was very frequent among the Hebrews (Lev. 14:8;
Num. 19:19, etc.). The high priest at his inauguration (Lev. 8:6), and
on the Day of Atonement, was required to bathe himself (16:4, 24). The
"pools" mentioned in Neh. 3:15, 16, 2 Kings 20:20, Isa. 22:11,
John 9:7, were public bathing-places.
