Leviticus 13:4

A Bright Spot on the Skin

13:4 “If 1  it is a white bright spot on the skin of his body, but it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, 2  and the hair has not turned white, then the priest is to quarantine the person with the infection for seven days. 3 

Leviticus 16:24

16:24 Then he must bathe his body in water in a holy place, put on his clothes, and go out and make his burnt offering and the people’s burnt offering. So he is to make atonement 4  on behalf of himself and the people. 5 

1 tn Heb “and if.”

2 tn Heb “and deep is not its appearance from the skin”; cf. NAB “does not seem to have penetrated below the skin.”

3 tn Heb “and the priest will shut up the infection seven days.”

4 tn Heb “And he shall make atonement.”

5 tn Heb “on behalf of himself and on behalf of the people.” After “on behalf of himself” the LXX adds the expected “and on behalf of his household” (cf. vv. 6, 11, and 17).
