Leviticus 14:57

14:57 to teach when something is unclean and when it is clean. ¹  This is the law for dealing with infectious disease.” ² 

---

¹ tn Heb “to teach in the day of the unclean and in the day of the clean.”

² tn Heb “This is the law of the disease.” Some English versions specify this as “skin disease” (e.g., NIV, NLT), but then have to add “and (+ infectious NLT) mildew” (so NIV) because a house would not be infected with a skin disease.

sn For an explanation of the term “disease” see Lev 13:2.
