Discovery BoxLeviticus 13:31-33 
Context13:31 But if the priest examines the scall infection and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, 1 and there is no black hair in it, then the priest is to quarantine the person with the scall infection for seven days. 2 13:32 The priest must then examine the infection on the seventh day, and if 3 the scall has not spread, there is no reddish yellow hair in it, and the scall does not appear to be deeper than the skin, 4 13:33 then the individual is to shave himself, 5 but he must not shave the area affected by the scall, 6 and the priest is to quarantine the person with the scall for another seven days. 7
1 tn Heb “and behold there is not its appearance deep ‘from’ (comparative מִן, min, meaning “deeper than”) the skin.”
2 tn Heb “and the priest will shut up the infection of the scall seven days.”
3 tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV).
