The following collection of singular commandments in the Torah applies specifically to the nazir. For that
reason they are allowed to have long hair, etc. Again, only technically speaking, here's what nezirut would
take:
Nothing "from the vine‖, meaning alcoholic drinks (Negative Law 202: Num 6:3 - A Nazir may not drink wine
or any beverage from grapes) in addition to any grape (Negative Law 203: Num 6:3 - A Nazir may not eat
fresh grapes), raisin (Negative Law 204: Num 6:3 - A Nazir may not eat dried grapes), grape seed (Negative
Law 205: Num 6:4 - A Nazir may not eat grape seeds/kernels) or grape rind (Negative Law 206: Num 6:4 - A
Nazir may not eat grape peels/husks), may be ingested.
The nazir's hair may not be cut (Negative Law 209: Num 6:5 - A Nazir must not shave his hair) and must be
allowed to grow unhindered (Positive Law 92: Num 6:5 - The Nazir letting his hair grow during his
separation).
To stay within that bubble of spirituality, the nazir cannot enter a building or facility – a "tent" as the Torah
puts it – in which a dead body is located (Negative Law 208: Lev 21:11- Nazir must not become tameh
entering house with corpse), and neither can he come into physical contact with the dead (Negative Law
207: Num 6:7 - Nazir may not rend himself tameh (unclean) for the dead).
And upon completion of the accepted term of nezirut, the nazir must bring certain sacrifices to the Temple
and shave his head (Positive Law 93: Num 6:18 - Nazir completing vow shaves his head & brings sacrifice).
Let‘s look again very carefully at the Scripture concerning the resurrection of the little girl:
―(18) While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him,
saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live. (19) And
Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples ... (23) And when Jesus came into the ruler's house,
and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise, (24) He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not
dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn. (25) But when the people were put forth, he went in, and
took her by the hand, and the maid arose‖. (Matt 9:18-26)
The fact is that the miracle happened already before Y‘shua entered the house. Y‘shua clearly said ―the maid
is not dead, but sleepeth‖. Technically speaking Y‘shua, therefore, never broke the Nazarite commandments.
The same applies to the resurrection of Lazarus. Y‘shua never entered Lazarus‘ tomb; in fact, he instructed
Lazarus to come out (John 11:43-44).
9:27-34 See that no man know it
―(27) And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David,
have mercy on us. (28) And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith
unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. (29) Then touched he their
eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. (30) And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly
charged them, saying, See that no man know it. (31) But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his
fame in all that country. (32) As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a
devil. (33) And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was
never so seen in Israel. (34) But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devil‖.
Why did Y‘shua "play down" who He was? One thought is that He didn't want the masses taking up arms
against Rome as many had the false idea that this would be a role of the Messiah.
In addition to this idea, looking back at the Hebrew Tenach, we find the following:
(8) ‖Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I,
Here am I; send me.
(9) And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but
perceive not.
(10) Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with
their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
(11) Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the
houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,
(12) And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.
(13) But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak,
whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof‖.
(Isaiah 6:8-13)
