Leviticus 11:35

11:35 Anything their carcass may fall on will become unclean. An oven or small stove must be smashed to pieces; they are unclean, and they will stay unclean ¹  to you.

Leviticus 13:45

The Life of the Person with Skin Disease

13:45 “As for the diseased person who has the infection, ²  his clothes must be torn, the hair of his head must be unbound, he must cover his mustache, ³  and he must call out ‘Unclean! Unclean!’

Leviticus 14:57

14:57 to teach when something is unclean and when it is clean. ⁴  This is the law for dealing with infectious disease.” ⁵ 

[11:35]  ¹ tn Heb “be unclean.”

[13:45]  ² tn Heb “And the diseased one who in him is the infection.”

[13:45]  ³ tn Heb “and his head shall be unbound, and he shall cover on [his] mustache.” Tearing one’s clothing, allowing the hair to hang loose rather than bound up in a turban, and covering the mustache on the upper lip are all ways of expressing shame, grief, or distress (cf., e.g., Lev 10:6 and Micah 3:7).

[14:57]  ³ tn Heb “to teach in the day of the unclean and in the day of the clean.”

[14:57]  ⁴ tn Heb “This is the law of the disease.” Some English versions specify this as “skin disease” (e.g., NIV, NLT), but then have to add “and (+ infectious NLT) mildew” (so NIV) because a house would not be infected with a skin disease.
