3 Mosebok 13:59

Detta är lagen om det som bliver angripet av spetälska, antingen det är en klädnad av ylle eller linne, eller det är vävt eller virkat tyg, eller någon skinnsak, vad det vara må -- den lag efter vilken det skall förklaras rent eller orent.

Reciprocal: Leviticus 5:3 - the uncleanness Leviticus 7:21 - the uncleanness Leviticus 14:2 - the law Leviticus 14:32 - General Leviticus 15:31 - Thus shall Leviticus 15:32 - General Numbers 5:29 - the law Numbers 30:16 - General Numbers 36:13 - the commandments

Gill's Notes on the Bible

This [is] the law of the plague of leprosy,.... The rules by which it was to be judged of; whether or no it was

in a garment of woollen, or linen, either the warp or woof, or any thing of skins; which include everything in which this sort of leprosy was:

to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean; either to declare it free from the plague of the leprosy, or as infected with it, and so accordingly dispose of it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Either - in these verses, should be or. See Leviticus 13:47, Leviticus 13:49.

It should be noticed that no religious or symbolic rite is prescribed for leprosy in clothing. The priest had only to decide whether the process of decay was at work in the article presented to him and to pronounce accordingly. Compare the leprosy in houses, Leviticus 14:33-53.
