Levítico 13:43 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 13:43

Then the priest shall look upon it
The white reddish sore:

and, behold, [if] the rising of the sore;
or the swelling of it:

[be] white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead;
(See Gill on Leviticus 13:42):

as the leprosy appeareth in the skin of the flesh;
as in ( Leviticus 13:2 ) ; having the signs of the leprosy there given; anyone of them, excepting the white hair, which in this case could be no sign, there being none: Jarchi's note is, according to the appearance of the leprosy, said in ( Leviticus 13:2 ) ; and what is said in it is, it defiles by four appearances, and is judged in two weeks; but not according to the appearance of the leprosy said of the boil, and burning, which were judged in one week; nor according to the appearance of the scalls, of the place of hair, which do not defile by the four appearances, the rising or swelling, and the scab of it, the bright spot, and the scab of that.

Levítico 13:43 In-Context

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,

44 o homem está leproso e impuro. O sacerdote terá que declará-lo impuro devido à ferida na cabeça.

45 “Quem ficar leproso, apresentando quaisquer desses sintomas, usará roupas rasgadas, andará descabelado, cobrirá a parte inferior do rosto e gritará: ‘Impuro! Impuro!’
