Leviticus 13:12-13

13:12 If, however, the disease breaks out ¹  on the skin so that the disease covers all the skin of the person with the infection ²  from his head to his feet, as far as the priest can see, ³  13:13 the priest must then examine it, ⁴  and if ⁵  the disease covers his whole body, he is to pronounce the person with the infection clean. ⁶  He has turned all white, so he is clean. ⁷ 

Leviticus 13:36

13:36 then the priest is to examine it, and if ⁸  the scall has spread on the skin the priest is not to search further for reddish yellow hair. ⁹  The person ¹⁰  is unclean.

¹ tn Heb “And if spreading [infinitive absolute] it spreads out [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

² tn Heb “all the skin of the infection,” but see v. 4 above.

³ tn Heb “to all the appearance of the eyes of the priest.”

⁴ tn Heb “and the priest shall see.” The pronoun “it” is unexpressed, but it should be assumed and it refers to the infection (cf. the note on v. 8 above).

⁵ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV, NASB).

⁶ tn Heb “he shall pronounce the infection clean,” but see v. 4 above. Also, this is another use of the declarative Piel of the verb טָהֵר (taher; cf. the note on v. 6 above).

⁷ tn Heb “all of him has turned white, and he is clean.”

⁸ tn Heb “and behold.”

⁹ tn Heb “the priest shall not search to the reddish yellow hair.”

¹⁰ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the affected person) is specified in the translation for clarity (likewise in the following verse).
