The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 14:10

On the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without blemish, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish, and three tenth deals of fine flour. Every sacrifice is to be provided and offered by the restored leper, except the peace offering. It is certainly singular that the peace offering should be omitted, and that the trespass offering should be required. The former fact may be accounted for by the supposition that though the peace offering was not required, the late leper was, after... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 14:10-20

Final rites of readmission. By the series of final rites of restoration recorded in these verses, the leper once more took his place as one of a holy nation admitted to the presence of God: he was "presented before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle," etc. ( Leviticus 14:10 ). His formal acceptance at the house of the Lord, and entrance again on the privileges of the peculiar people, reminds us that our entrance, whether in the first instance or after backsliding and return, upon the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 14:10-32

The cleansing of the leper-ceremony in the tabernacle. The ceremonies for the cleansing of the leper were distributed into two series. The first were conducted "outside the camp." This suggests that the leper must be taken not only as a type of sinners in general, but of the "sinners of the Gentiles" in particular (comp. Hebrews 13:10-12 ). The ceremony in the tabernacle, therefore, must refer to the reception of the Gentiles by the gospel into the fellowship of the saints. We notice— ... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 14:10-11

Two young rams from one to three years old (not lambs), a ewe lamb in her first year (see Leviticus 12:6), three-tenth parts of an ephah (something over ten pints and a half) of fine flour mingled with oil, and a log (about half a pint; see Leviticus 19:35) of oil. The priest presented both the man and his offerings to Yahweh at the entrance of the tent of meeting. See Leviticus 1:3. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 14:10

Leviticus 14:10. Two he-lambs, and one ewe-lamb For three kinds of sacrifice, namely, a trespass-offering, a sin-offering, and a burnt-offering. Flour for a meal-offering For to each of these sacrifices there was a meal or bread- offering appropriated, consisting of a tenth part of an ephah of fine flour. Mingled with oil This is added as a fit sign of God’s grace and mercy, and of the leper’s being healed. A log is a measure containing about six egg-shells full. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Leviticus 14:1-32

Restoration after healing (14:1-32)A lengthy ritual was laid down for the restoration of a cleansed leper or any other person who had been healed of an infectious skin disease. The ritual lasted more than a week, and began at the place where the person was temporarily living outside the camp (14:1-3; cf. v. 10).The cleansed person, previously ‘dead’ through his disease, symbolized his ‘death’ by killing a bird, symbolized his cleansing by draining the bird’s blood into a bowl of pure water, and... read more

"And on the eighth day he shall take two he-lambs without blemish, and one ewe-lamb a year old without blemish, and three tenth parts of an ephah of fine flour for a meal-offering, mingled with oil, and one log of oil. And the priest that cleanseth him shall set the man that is to be cleansed, and those things, before Jehovah, at the door of the tent of meeting. And the priest shall take one of the he-lambs, and offer him for a trespass-offering, and the log of oil, and wave them for a... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Leviticus 14:10

Leviticus 14:10. One log of oil— A log was the smallest measure among the Hebrews, and contained, according to Dr. Cumberland, somewhat more than half a pint of our measure. The first offering to be made by the leper on his return to the place of God's worship was a trespass-offering, Leviticus 14:12 a proper act of humiliation for sin; which is the source of all those pains, and diseases to which both the bodies and souls of men are obnoxious, and of which the leprosy was thought to be... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 14:10

10-20. on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without blemish, and one ewe-lamb of the first year without blemish—The purification of the leper was not completed till at the end of seven days, after the ceremonial of the birds [ :-] and during which, though permitted to come into the camp, he had to tarry abroad out of his tent [ :-], from which he came daily to appear at the door of the tabernacle with the offerings required. He was presented before the Lord by the priest that made him... read more
