32 and in the seventh day the priest shall look on the plague: and,
behold, if the scall spread not, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the scall be not in sight deeper than the skin;
33 he shall be shaven, but the scall shall he not shave; and the priest
shall shut up him that hath the scall seven days more:
34 and in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scall: and,
behold, if the scall be not spread in the skin, nor be in sight deeper than the skin; then the priest shall pronounce him clean: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
35 But if the scall spread much in the skin after his cleansing; 36 then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if the scall be spread
in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow hair; he is unclean.
37 But if the scall be in his sight at a stay, and that there is black hair
grown up therein; the scall is healed, he is clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
38 If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright
spots, even white bright spots;
39 then the priest shall look: and, behold, if the bright spots in the
skin of their flesh be darkish white, it is a freckled spot that groweth in the skin: he is clean.
Provisos that neither a freckled skin nor a bald head should be mistaken for a leprosy, Le 13:38-41. Every deformity must not forthwith be made a ceremonial defilement. Elisha was jeered for his bald head (2Ki 2:23); but it was the children of Bethel, that knew not the judgments of their God, who turned it to his reproach.
40 And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he is bald; yet is he
clean.
41 And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward
his face, he is forehead bald; yet is he clean.
42 And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white reddish
sore; it is a leprosy sprung up in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
43 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the rising of the
sore be white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appeareth in the skin of the flesh;
44 he is a leprous man, he is unclean: the priest shall pronounce him
utterly unclean; his plague is in his head.
