Die Rasur der Unreinheit —Wie? Er würde am dritten und siebten Tag (mit dem reinigenden Wasser) besprenkelt werden, und er würde sich am siebten rasieren und er würde seine Opfergaben am achten bringen. Und wenn er sich am achten rasiert, bringt er an diesem Tag seine Opfergaben [wie geschrieben steht (Numeri 6: 9): "Dann wird er es rasieren. (10) Und am achten Tag wird er zwei Turteltauben bringen usw. "] Dies sind die Worte von R. Akiva. R. Tarfon fragte ihn: Was ist der Unterschied zwischen ihm und einem Aussätzigen? [es wird in Bezug auf die zweite Rasur eines Aussätzigen geschrieben (3. Mose 14: 9): "Und am siebten Tag wird er alle seine Haare rasieren ... (10) Und am achten Tag wird er nehmen, etc." Und in Bezug auf einen Aussätzigen wird entschieden, dass er, wenn er sich am achten Tag rasiert, sein Opfer am neunten bringt!] Er antwortete: Dieser [der Nazirit], dessen Reinigung von seinen Tagen abhängt, [streut den dritten und am siebten und Eintauchen. Da er am siebten gereinigt wird, obwohl er sich erst am achten Tag rasiert hat, bringt er daher an diesem Tag seine Opfergaben], während er Aussätziger ist—Seine Reinigung hängt von seiner Rasur ab, und er kann kein Opfer bringen, bis die Sonne untergegangen ist (nach seiner Reinigung). [Am siebten Tag wird er alle Haare rasieren ", gefolgt von:" Und er soll sein Fleisch in Wasser baden. " Und wenn er eingetaucht ist, bevor er sich rasiert hat, nützt sein Eintauchen nichts. Wenn er sich am achten rasiert hat, muss er immer noch in die Sonne eintauchen und untergehen, weshalb er seine Opfergaben erst am neunten Tag bringen kann. Die Halacha stimmt mit R. Akiva überein.]
Bartenura on Mishnah Nazir
מגלח בשביעי ומביא קרבן בשמיני – as It is written (Numbers 6:9-10): “[If a person dies suddenly near him, defiling his consecrated hair,] he shall shave his head on the day he becomes clean; he shall shave it on the seventh day. On the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves or two pigeons [to the priest, at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting],” and a lamb for a guilt offering (see verse 12).

English Explanation of Mishnah Nazir
Introduction
If a nazirite contracts ritual impurity, he must count seven days, shave his head on the seventh, bring two sacrifices on the eighth day, one a sin offering and the other a burnt offering, and then begin to count his naziriteship again. This is spelled out in Number 6:9-12. Our mishnah describes this ritual.

מה בין זה למצורע – as it is written in the portion of the leper in the second shaving (Leviticus 14:9-10): “On the seventh day he shall shave off he shall shave off all his hair…,” on the eighth day he shall take [two male lambs without blemish, one ewe lamb in its first year without blemish].” And we hold with regard to a leper, that if he shaves on the eighth day, he brings the sacrifice on the ninth [day].

English Explanation of Mishnah Nazir
Shaving on account of defilement: How was it done? He would sprinkle [with purification water] on the third and seventh days, shave on the seventh day and bring his sacrifices on the eighth day. Numbers 19:19 states that a person who has become ritually defiled by contact with a corpse must have purification water sprinkled on him on the third and seventh days. Our mishnah adds this information into the procedure clearly stated in Numbers 6, that a nazirite who has become impure shaves on the seventh day and brings his sacrifices on the eighth.

Bartenura on Mishnah Nazir
אמר לו שזה טהרתו תלויה בימיו – For a Nazirite, his [ritual] purification is dependent upon sparkling on the third [day] and on the seventh [day] and ritual immersion’; therefore, since he became pure on the seventh day, even though he had not shaved until the eighth day, he bring his sacrifices on that selfsame day.

English Explanation of Mishnah Nazir
If he shaved on the eighth day, he would bring his sacrifices on that same day, the words of Rabbi Akiva. Rabbi Tarfon said to him: what difference is there between this one and a person with scale disease? He said to him: the purification of this one depends on his days, whereas the purification of one with scale disease depends on his shaving, and he cannot bring a sacrifice unless the sun has set upon him [after his purification]. According to Rabbi Akiva, if he shaved on the eighth day, he may bring his sacrifices that very same day. Rabbi Akiva reasons that a nazirite may always bring his sacrifices the day after he has become pure, regardless of when he shaves. Rabbi Tarfon raises a difficulty on Rabbi Akiva. When a person with scale disease becomes pure, he too must shave on the seventh day and bring his sacrifices on the eighth day (see Leviticus 14:9-10). However, in that case, Rabbi Akiva agrees that if he shaves on the eighth day, he may not bring his sacrifices until the ninth. Rabbi Akiva responds that a nazirite’s purity depends on the seven days and not on his having shaved. This is demonstrated by the fact that the nazirite goes to the mikveh on the seventh day, even if he doesn’t shave until the eighth. Therefore, once he has become pure on the seventh day, he may bring his sacrifices on the eighth, even if he also shaves that day. In contrast, a person with scale disease cannot go to the mikveh, until he shaves. He cannot bring his sacrifice, therefore, until the sun sets on the day that he has become pure by going to the mikveh, which if he shaves on the eighth will not be until the ninth. Therefore, the person with scale disease is not analogous to the nazirite.

אבל מצורע טהרתו תלויה בתגלחתו – as it is written (Leviticus 14:9): “on the seventh day he shall shave off all his hair” and afterwards it is written (ibid.): “and bathe his body in water; [then he shall be clean],” but if he immersed prior to shaving, the immersion does not count for him; therefore, if he shaved on the eighth day, he yet requires [ritual] immersion at sunset, therefore, he cannot bring his sacrifices until the ninth [day], and the Halakha is according to Rabbi Akiva.
