Leviticus 13:37

¹ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV).

² tn Heb “the infection has stood in his eyes”; ASV “if in his eyes the plague be at a stay.”

³ tn Although there is no expressed “and” at the beginning of this clause, there is in the corresponding clause of v. 6, so it should be assumed here as well.

⁴ tn Heb “a second seven days.”

⁵ tn Heb “and if in his eyes the infection has stood.”

⁶ tn This is the declarative Piel of the verb טָהֵר (taher, cf. the note on v. 6 above).
