Levítico 14:9 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 14:9

But it shall be on the seventh day
After he was first brought to the priest, and cleansed by the two birds, taken and used for him as directed, and he had been shaved and washed:

that he shall shave all his hair;
a second time, whatsoever was grown in those seven days:

all off his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows; even all his hair
he shall shave off;
not only the hair of the parts mentioned, but all other, the hair of his feet also, as Aben Ezra notes, who observes, that some say, the hair of his arms, and thighs, and breast; and so according to the Misnah ^F13, this was a second shaving, for it is said,

``in the seventh day he shaves a second time, according to the first shaving:''

he shall wash his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and
he shall be clean;
this was also repeated on the seventh, both the washing of his clothes, and the dipping of him in water; after which he was accounted clean, and was neither defiled nor defiling, and might go into his own tent or house, and into the tabernacle, and offer his offerings, and partake of the privileges of it, at least some of them, even the same day; according to the tradition he may eat of the tithes, and after sunset he may eat of the heave offerings, and when he has brought his atonement he may eat of the holy things ^F14.

Levítico 14:9 In-Context

7 Luego el sacerdote rociará la sangre del ave muerta siete veces sobre la persona que está siendo purificada de la enfermedad cutánea. Después de purificar a la persona, el sacerdote soltará al ave viva en el campo abierto.

8 »Entonces, aquellos que están siendo purificados deberán lavar su ropa, rasurarse todo el cuerpo y bañarse con agua; así quedarán ceremonialmente puros y podrán regresar al campamento. Sin embargo, tendrán que permanecer fuera de su carpa durante siete días.

9 Al séptimo día, nuevamente deberán rasurarse todo el pelo de su cabeza, incluidas la barba y las cejas. También deberán lavar su ropa y bañarse con agua; entonces quedarán ceremonialmente puros.

10 »Al octavo día, cada persona que está siendo purificada debe llevar dos corderos sin defecto y una cordera de un año sin defecto, junto con una ofrenda de grano de seis kilos
de harina selecta humedecida con aceite de oliva, y un tercio de litro
de aceite de oliva.

11 Después el sacerdote oficiante presentará a la persona que será purificada, junto con las ofrendas, ante el Señor
a la entrada del tabernáculo.
