The Redeeming Christ as the Reality of the Red Heifer Cleanses us from Impurity
One of the types of Christ uniquely revealed in the book of Numbers is the red heifer, which is the principal component of the water for impurity, and which signifies the redeeming Christ.

The manifestation of the Lord Jesus destroyed the works of the devil, and the death of the Lord Jesus destroyed the devil himself (see 1 John 3:8; John 3:14; 12:31; Heb. 2:14).
