The Jews believe in the necessity of a religious ritual to purify themselves from the impurities of the dead. This for them can only be removed by sprinkling the impurity with water mixed with the ashes of a pure-colored “red cow,” without any blemish.

The appearance of the "Tenth Red Cow" represents great importance to the Jews, as they believe that it is a "sign from God" to allow them to ascend the "Temple Mount" and enter Al-Aqsa.
