Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Leviticus 13:9

"When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the priest; and the priest shall look; and, behold, if there be a white rising in the skin, and it have turned the hair white, and there be quick raw flesh in the rising, it is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean: he shall not shut him up; for he is unclean. And if the leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy cover all the skin of him that hath the plague from his... read more

Leviticus 13:11. And shall not shut him up— "For trial, as in the former case, Lev 13:5 but he shall remove him out of the camp, to dwell by himself, till he is perfectly clean." See Leviticus 13:46. There seems to be no doubt, from this state of the case, that proper medicinal means were used, as we have observed, during this time of the leper's separation without the camp. The reader will excuse us if we do not enter minutely into all the symptoms of this disease; we refer the curious to... read more

Leviticus 13:12-13. And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin, &c.— It may appear extraordinary, that a man, who is all over leprous, should be pronounced clean, and yet one, who is but partially leprous, should be unclean. "The difficulty contained in this passage will vanish," says Dr. Mead, "if we suppose, as it manifestly appears to me, that it points out two different species of the disease: the one, in which the eroded skin was ulcerated; the other, which spread on the surface of... read more

Leviticus 13:16. Or— But. Houbigant. REFLECTIONS.—We have here the treatment of the plague of leprosy. 1. In the examining of it, the priest was to use the greatest circumspection and deliberation. Rash censures, or hasty conclusions, ill become God's ministers. God lays down his rule of judgment. By the word of God must every man's spiritual estate be determined. 2. If, after the leper was shut up, the sore were deep, and spread, then he was pronounced unclean. Scandalous sins are a just cause... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 13:9

9-37. if the rising be white—This BRIGHT WHITE leprosy is the most malignant and inveterate of all the varieties the disease exhibits, and it was marked by the following distinctive signs: A glossy white and spreading scale, upon an elevated base, the elevation depressed in the middle, but without a change of color; the black hair on the patches participating in the whiteness, and the scaly patches themselves perpetually enlarging their boundary. Several of these characteristics, taken... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Leviticus 13:1-46

Abnormalities in human skin 13:1-46God dealt with 21 different cases of skin diseases in this pericope. Some of these may have included measles, smallpox, scarlet fever, and other diseases characterized by skin rash. [Note: Harris, p. 577.] Some authorities believe that exact identification of the various forms of scaly skin disorders described in this chapter is impossible today. [Note: Browne, pp. 5-6.] Others feel more confident. One authority suggested the following identifications. [Note:... read more

3. Uncleanness due to skin and covering abnormalities chs. 13-14Many translations and commentaries have regarded the legislation in these chapters as dealing with leprosy, but this is misleading. The confusion has arisen because the term "leprosy" appears in most English texts in these chapters, and English readers automatically think that what we know as modern leprosy is in view. However as the chapters unfold it becomes increasingly clear that what is in view is not modern leprosy (Hansen’s... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Leviticus 13:9-17

These tests were appropriate when raw flesh appeared in an infected area of the skin. White hair in the raw flesh area was a sure sign of serious skin disease.If the afflicted person became completely white rather than blotchy, the priest was to consider him or her clean. Evidently it was the patchy condition of the skin that made the person unclean. Another explanation is that a totally white condition indicated that the disease was over or not contagious.

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 13:1-59

Uncleanness connected with LeprosyIt is tolerably certain that the leprosy of the OT. is not the leprosy of the Middle Ages, which is still to be found in the East. The latter is a terrible and loathsome disease, called elephantiasis, in consequence of which the skin thickens, the features are distorted, and the very limbs mortify and drop off from the body. The leprosy of the Bible is a skin disease, known as psoriasis, in which the skin and hair grow white, and which is accompanied with scab... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Leviticus 13:9

(9) When the plague of leprosy is in a man.—The second case, discussed inverses 9-17, is of leprosy re-appearing after it has been cured, when a somewhat different treatment is enjoined. In its re-appearance, as in its first manifestation, the patient is forthwith to be brought to the priest. read more
