Matthew Poole's Concise Commentary

Leviticus 6:27

Whatsoever shall touch the flesh; of which See Poole on "Leviticus 6:18". Upon any garment; upon the priest's garment; for it was he only that sprinkled it, and in so doing he might easily sprinkle his garments. Thou shalt wash that whereon it was sprinkled in the holy place; partly out of reverence to the blood of sacrifices, which hereby was kept from a profane or common touch; and partly that such garments might be decent, and fit for sacred administrations.
