וְזָרַקְתִּ֧י עֲלֵיכֶ֛ם מַ֥יִם טְהוֹרִ֖ים וּטְהַרְתֶּ֑ם מִכֹּ֧ל טֻמְאוֹתֵיכֶ֛ם וּמִכָּל־גִּלּ֥וּלֵיכֶ֖ם אֲטַהֵ֥ר אֶתְכֶֽם׃
我必將潔淨的水灑在你們身上，你們就潔淨了；我必潔淨你們，使你們脫離一切的不潔，脫離一切的偶像。
Beit Aharon
In the Mishnah (Yoma 85b): Rabbi Akiva said, "How fortunate are you, Israel; before Whom are you purified, and Who purifies you? Your Father in Heaven, as it is stated (Ezekiel 36:25), "And I will sprinkle purifying water upon you, and you shall be purified." And it states (Jeremiah 17:13), 'The mikveh (ritual bath) of Israel is God.' Just as a mikveh purifies the impure, so too does the Holy One, Blessed be He, purify Israel."
