Leviticus 13:6

13:6 The priest must then examine it again on the seventh day, ¹  and if ²  the infection has faded and has not spread on the skin, then the priest is to pronounce the person clean. ³  It is a scab, ⁴  so he must wash his clothes ⁵  and be clean.

Leviticus 13:31

13:31 But if the priest examines the scall infection and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, ⁶  and there is no black hair in it, then the priest is to quarantine the person with the scall infection for seven days. ⁷ 

Leviticus 13:49

13:49 if the infection ⁸  in the garment or leather or warp or woof or any article of leather is yellowish green or reddish, it is a diseased infection and it must be shown to the priest.

Leviticus 14:48

14:48 “If, however, the priest enters ⁹  and examines it, and the ¹⁰  infection has not spread in the house after the house has been replastered, then the priest is to pronounce the house clean because the infection has been healed.

[13:6]  ¹ tn That is, at the end of the second set of seven days referred to at the end of v. 5, a total of fourteen days after the first appearance before the priest.

[13:6]  ² tn Heb “and behold.”

[13:6]  ³ tn Heb “he shall make him clean.” The verb is the Piel of טָהֵר (taher, “to be clean”). Here it is a so-called “declarative” Piel (i.e., “to declare clean”), but it also implies that the person is put into the category of being “clean” by the pronouncement itself (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 176; cf. the corresponding opposite in v. 3 above).

[13:6]  ⁴ tn On the term “scab” see the note on v. 2 above. Cf. NAB “it was merely eczema”; NRSV “only an eruption”; NLT “only a temporary rash.”

[13:6]  ⁵ tn Heb “and he shall wash his clothes.”

[13:31]  ⁶ tn Heb “and behold there is not its appearance deep ‘from’ (comparative מִן, min, meaning “deeper than”) the skin.”

[13:31]  ⁷ tn Heb “and the priest will shut up the infection of the scall seven days.”

[13:49]  ¹¹ tn Heb “and the infection is.” This clause is conditional in force, and is translated as such by almost all English versions.

[14:48]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “And if the priest entering [infinitive absolute] enters [finite verb]” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

[14:48]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV); NASB “and the mark has not indeed spread.”
