Levítico 13:9 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 13:9

When the plague of leprosy is in a man
He has all the signs of it, and it is pretty manifest both to himself and others that it is upon him;

then he shall be brought unto the priest;
by his friends and neighbours, if he is not willing to come of himself: a sinner insensible of the leprosy of sin, and of his unclean and miserable state through it, has no will to come to Christ the great High Priest for cleansing; but one that is sensible of it, and of Christ's ability to help and cleanse him, will come freely and gladly, and importunately seek to him for it; though indeed such an one is brought by powerful and efficacious grace to him, yet not against, but with his full will; see ( John 5:40 ) ( John 6:37 John 6:44 ) ; compare with this ( Matthew 8:1-3 ) ( Luke 17:12-14 ) .

Levítico 13:9 In-Context

7 Mas se a pústula se estender muito na pele, depois de se ter mostrado ao sacerdote para a sua purificação, mostrar-se-á de novo ao sacerdote,
8 o qual o examinará; se a pústula se tiver estendido na pele, o sacerdote o declarará imundo; é lepra.
9 Quando num homem houver praga de lepra, será ele levado ao sacerdote,
10 o qual o examinará; se houver na pele inchação branca que tenha tornado branco o pêlo, e houver carne viva na inchação,
11 lepra inveterada é na sua pele. Portanto, o sacerdote o declarará imundo; não o encerrará, porque imundo é.
