Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Leviticus 13:1

CONTENTS The law concerning the uncleanness of the leprosy forms the subject of this Chapter. The method of discovery in ascertaining the existence of the decease, is very particularly pointed out. To which are added laws for the regulation of persons infected with the leprosy, and for due regard to their garments. Leviticus 13:1 In the opening of this Chapter I beg to remind the reader once again, that Moses wrote of JESUS. In the person of Aaron as the great high priest to whom the leper was... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 13:1-17

1-17 The plague of leprosy was an uncleanness, rather than a disease. Christ is said to cleanse lepers, not to cure them. Common as the leprosy was among the Hebrews, during and after their residence in Egypt, we have no reason to believe that it was known among them before. Their distressed state and employment in that land must have rendered them liable to disease. But it was a plague often inflicted immediately by the hand of God. Miriam's leprosy, and Gehazi's, and king Uzziah's, were... read more

THIRD SECTIONLaws Concerning LeprosyChaps. 13, 14______________PRELIMINARY NOTEThe disease of leprosy has happily become so rare in modern times in the better known parts of the world that much obscurity rests upon its pathology. The attempt will only be made here to point out those matters which may be considered as fixed by common consent, but which will be found sufficient for the illustration of the more important points in the following chapters.In the first place, then, it appears... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Leviticus 13:1-17

the Test of Leprosy Leviticus 13:1-17 Leprosy was a sort of living death, involving exclusion from the fellowship of the living, and from the sanctuary. Consequently the process of restoration consisted of two stages: re-admission, through the cure of disease, into the fellowship of the living, Leviticus 13:1-59 , and then to the camp and sanctuary, through the due performance of prescribed rites, Leviticus 14:1-32 . The enumeration of the symptoms is very deliberate. The priest was required... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 13:1-59

Here we have a section (chapters 13, 14) wholly devoted to the subject of leprosy. The disease was dealt with as one which is loathsome, whose tendency is to spread, and which is contagious. The whole community must be zealously safeguarded. Therefore, there must be no carelessness in the method of dealing with leprosy. In the instructions two principles of perpetual importance are manifested. The first is the necessity for guarding the general health of the community and the second is that... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 13:1

This Is The Word Of Yahweh (Leviticus 13:1 ). Leviticus 13:1 ‘And Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,’ Here Aaron is for the second time included with Moses in receiving the word of Yahweh (compare Leviticus 11:1), and will be again in Leviticus 14:33 and Leviticus 15:1. This suggests that at times he approached Yahweh in Moses’ company, although never as the prime person. In spite of his status he could not outrank Moses. But here he was present as a witness to what God said. Judging... read more

Leviticus 13:1-Acts : . General Procedure.— Certain classes of signs arouse suspicion. The priest is to inspect. If he sees them to be distinctly leprous, the patient is to be so treated; otherwise he is to be secluded for one or two periods of seven days; if there is no further spreading, he is discharged clean.” Leviticus 13:1-Ruth : . First Case.— A ring or scab on the flesh. If there are white hairs more than skin-deep, the disease is present. Leviticus 13:9-Esther : . Recovery of... read more
