Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 13:1-59

Leviticus 13:2. Aaron or one of his sons were obliged to inspect every case of leprosy, the priests being best acquainted with the nature and progress of the complaint, and most concerned to keep the congregation pure. Leviticus 13:6. The priest shall pronounce him clean. He could not heal, as did the prophet Elisha; he could only pronounce upon the case, whether clean or unclean. The mighty ado therefore of the popish priests on this head, comes to nothing, for the Hebrew priesthood... read more

Leviticus 13:2-46The plague of leprosy.The cleansing of the leperI. The loathsome and ghastly spectacle of a leper.1. A leper was extremely loathsome in his person. But let me remind you that this, fearful as it seems to be, is a very poor portrait of the loathsomeness of sin. If we could bear to hear what God could tell us of the exceeding wickedness and uncleanness of sin, I am sure we should die. God hides from all eyes but His own the blackness of sin.2.

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Leviticus 13:9

Lev 13:9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the priest; Ver. 9. He shall be brought unto the priest. ] Who was to discern it by the law of leprosy: so must we find out our sins by the moral law. Romans 3:20 ; Rom 7:7 "The works of the flesh are manifest." Gal 5:19 Neither need we half so much caution or curiosity to be persuaded of our spiritual leprosy, which is too apparent: only those many ceremonies, as one well noteth, may put us in mind how much more... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Leviticus 13:10

Lev 13:10 And the priest shall see [him]: and, behold, [if] the rising [be] white in the skin, and it have turned the hair white, and [there be] quick raw flesh in the rising; Ver. 10. And there be quick raw flesh. ] It is one of the most remarkable things in all this law, saith a learned divine, that quick or sound flesh in the sore should be judged leprosy, and the man unclean: whereas if the leprosy covered all his flesh, he was pronounced clean. Lev 13:13 Hereby may be meant, (1.) Such as... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 13:10-12

10-12. The rising This was a decisive indication when it was white and accompanied by white hair and raw flesh in the swelling. There was in that case no doubt that the virus of leprosy had been long in the blood, making it an old leprosy. Shall not shut him up For the case is no longer doubtful. The man must now be excluded from the camp or city with bare head, covered face, and rent garment, the badges of his dreadful malady. See Leviticus 13:45, note. read more
