Leviticus 13:31

13:31 But if the priest examines the scall infection and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, ¹  and there is no black hair in it, then the priest is to quarantine the person with the scall infection for seven days. ² 

Leviticus 13:20

13:20 The priest will then examine it, ³  and if ⁴  it appears to be deeper than the skin ⁵  and its hair has turned white, then the priest is to pronounce the person unclean. ⁶  It is a diseased infection that has broken out in the boil. ⁷ 

Leviticus 13:27

13:27 The priest must then examine it on the seventh day, and if it is spreading further ⁸  on the skin, then the priest is to pronounce him unclean. It is a diseased infection. ⁹ 

Leviticus 13:42

13:42 But if there is a reddish white infection in the back or front bald area, it is a disease breaking out in his back or front bald area.

Leviticus 14:3

14:3 The priest is to go outside the camp and examine the infection. ¹⁰  If the infection of the diseased person has been healed, ¹¹ 

Leviticus 14:34

14:34 “When you enter the land of Canaan which I am about to give ¹²  to you for a possession, and I put ¹³  a diseased infection in a house in the land you are to possess, ¹⁴ 

[13:31]  ¹ tn Heb “and behold there is not its appearance deep ‘from’ (comparative מִן, min, meaning “deeper than”) the skin.”

[13:31]  ² tn Heb “and the priest will shut up the infection of the scall seven days.”

[13:20]  ³ tn Heb “and the priest shall see.” The pronoun “it” is unexpressed, but it should be assumed and it refers to the infection (cf. the note on v. 8 above).

[13:20]  ⁴ tn Heb “and behold.”

[13:20]  ⁵ tn Heb “and behold its appearance is low (שָׁפָל, shafal) ‘from’ (comparative מִן, min, “lower than”) the skin.” Compare “deeper” in v. 3 above where, however, a different word is used (עָמֹק, ’amoq), and see the note on “swelling” in v. 1 above (cf. J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 192; note that, contrary to the MT, Tg. Onq. has עָמֹק in this verse as well as v. 4). The alternation of these two terms (i.e., “deeper” and “lower”) in vv. 25-26 below shows that they both refer to the same phenomenon. Some have argued that “this sore was lower than the surrounding skin” (J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:773, 788), in which case “swelling” would be an inappropriate translation of שְׂאֵת (sÿ’et) in v. 19. It seems unlikely, however, that the surface of a “boil” would sink below the surface of the surrounding skin. The infectious pus etc. that makes up a boil normally causes swelling.

[13:20]  ⁶ tn The declarative Piel of the verb טָמֵא (tame’, cf. the note on v. 3 above).

[13:20]  ⁷ tn Heb “It is an infection of disease. In the boil it has broken out.” For the rendering “diseased infection” see the note on v. 2 above.

[13:27]  ⁵ tn Heb “is indeed spreading.”

[13:27]  ⁶ tn For the rendering “diseased infection” see the note on v. 2 above.

[14:3]  ⁷ tn Heb “and he shall be brought to the priest and the priest shall go out to from outside to the camp and the priest shall see [it].” The understood “it” refers to the skin infection itself (see the note on 13:3 above). The referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[14:3]  ⁸ tn Heb “And behold, the diseased infection has been healed from the diseased person.” The expression “diseased infection” has been translated as simply “infection” to avoid redundancy here in terms of English style.

[14:34]  ⁹ tn Heb “which I am giving” (so NAB, NIV).

[14:34]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “give.”

[14:34]  ¹¹ tn Heb “in the house of the land of your possession” (KJV and ASV both similar).
