Levítico 13:41 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 13:41

And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his
head towards his face
That is, from the crown of his head towards his forehead and temples, the fore part of his head; and so the Misnic doctors distinguish baldness, which is from the crown of the head descending behind to the channel of the neck; and that here mentioned, which is from the crown of the head descending to his face and forehead, over against the hair above ^F24: he [is] forehead bald;
to distinguish him from him that is bald behind: [yet is] he clean;
as the other: these cases are observed, that it might not be concluded that every man that shed his hair or was bald either before or behind was a leper, because the hair of a leper used to fall off from him; if he had not the other signs of leprosy, and which were the sure and true signs of it before mentioned.

40 “Quando os cabelos de um homem caírem, ele está calvo, todavia puro.

41 Se lhe caírem os cabelos da frente da cabeça, ele está meio-calvo, porém puro.

42 Mas, se tiver uma ferida avermelhada na parte calva da frente ou de trás da cabeça, é lepra que se alastra pela calva da frente ou de trás da cabeça.

43 O sacerdote o examinará e, se a ferida inchada na parte da frente ou de trás da calva for avermelhada como a lepra de pele,
