14:56 for the swelling, ¹  for the scab, ²  and for the bright spot, ³ 

Deuteronomy 28:27

Isaiah 3:17

3:17 So ⁴  the sovereign master ⁵  will afflict the foreheads of Zion’s women ⁶  with skin diseases, ⁷ 

the Lord will make the front of their heads bald.” ⁸ 

[14:56]  ¹ sn Cf. Lev 13:9-28, 43.

[14:56]  ² sn Cf. Lev 13:2.

[14:56]  ³ sn Cf. Lev 13:4, 18-28, 38-39. For explanations of all these terms for disease in Lev 14:56 see 13:2.

[3:17]  ⁴ tn In the Hebrew text vv. 16-17 and one long sentence, “Because the daughters of Zion are proud and walk…, the sovereign master will afflict….” In v. 17 the Lord refers to himself in the third person.

[3:17]  ⁵ tn The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here and in v. 18 is אֲדֹנָי (’adonay).

[3:17]  ⁶ tn Heb “the daughters of Zion.”

[3:17]  ⁷ tn Or “a scab” (KJV, ASV); NIV, NCV, CEV “sores.”

[3:17]  ⁸ tn The precise meaning of this line is unclear because of the presence of the rare word פֹּת (pot). Since the verb in the line means “lay bare, make naked,” some take פֹּת as a reference to the genitals (cf. KJV, ASV, NRSV, CEV). (In 1 Kgs 7:50 a noun פֹּת appears, with the apparent meaning “socket.”) J. N. Oswalt (Isaiah [NICOT], 1:139, n. 2), basing his argument on alleged Akkadian evidence and the parallelism of the verse, takes פֹּת as “forehead.”
