Discovery BoxLeviticus 13:4 
Context13:4 “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 13:31
Context13:31 But if the priest examines the scall infection and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, 4 and there is no black hair in it, then the priest is to quarantine the person with the scall infection for seven days. 5
Leviticus 13:34
Context13:34 The priest must then examine the scall on the seventh day, and if 6 the scall has not spread on the skin and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, 7 then the priest is to pronounce him clean. 8 So he is to wash his clothes and be clean.
Leviticus 16:2
Context16:2 and the Lord said to Moses: “Tell Aaron your brother that he must not enter at any time into the holy place inside the veil-canopy 9 in front of the atonement plate 10 that is on the ark so that he may not die, for I will appear in the cloud over the atonement plate.
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.”

6 tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV).
7 tn Heb “and its appearance is not deep ‘from’ (comparative מִן, min, meaning “deeper than”) the skin.”
8 tn This is the declarative Piel of the verb טָהֵר (taher, cf. the note on v. 6 above).

Exod 26:33-34). The Hebrew term פָּרֹכֶת (parokhet) is usually translated “veil” or “curtain,” but it seems to have stretched not only in front of but also over the top of the ark of the covenant which stood behind and under it inside the most holy place, and thus formed more of a canopy than simply a curtain (see R. E. Averbeck, NIDOTTE 3:687-89).
10 tn Heb “to the faces of the atonement plate.” The exact meaning of the Hebrew term כַּפֹּרֶת (kapporet) here rendered “atonement plate” is much debated. The traditional “mercy seat” (KJV, ASV, NASB, NRSV) does not suit the cognate relationship between this term and the Piel verb כִּפֶּר (kipper, “to make atonement, to make expiation”). The translation of the word should also reflect the fact that the most important atonement procedures on the Day of Atonement were performed in relation to it. Since the
