NETBible

It happened that some men¹ who were ceremonially defiled² by the dead body of a man³ could not keep⁴ the Passover on that day, so they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day.

NET Notes

¹tn In the Hebrew text the noun has no definite article, and so it signifies “some” or “certain” men.

²tn The meaning, of course, is to be ceremonially unclean, and therefore disqualified from entering the sanctuary.

³tn Or “a human corpse” (so NAB, NKJV). So also in v.7; cf. v. 10.

⁴tn This clause begins with the vav (ו) conjunction and negative before the perfect tense. Here is the main verb of the sentence: They were not able to observe the Passover. The first part of the verse provides the explanation for their problem.
