Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Leviticus 14:8

Shave off all his hair; partly, to discover his perfect soundness; partly, to preserve him from relapse through any seeds or relics of it which might remain in his hair, or in his clothes; and partly, to teach him to put off his old lusts, and become a new man. Out of his tent; out of his former habitation, in some separate place, lest some of his leprosy yet lurking in him should break forth to the infection of his family. read more

Leprosy CleansedSUGGESTIVE READINGSLeviticus 14:2.—In the day of his cleansing. Remedy and respite came to the pitiable leper. Although his case seemed forlorn and dismal—unclean, and an outcast—yet the hope was left to him that the plague might be healed, and he be again restored to society and the sanctuary. The darkest lot of human life is illumined by hope; faint may be its ray, yet it breaks the dreariest gloom. Weary indeed were “all the days wherein the plague was in him” (Leviticus... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Leviticus 14:1-57

Chapter 14In chapter fourteen it begins with very fascinating words,And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing ( Leviticus 14:1-2 ):Interesting, indeed, because leprosy is incurable. So God in the law made provision for the operation of His grace apart from human instrument. For in a technical sense leprosy was incurable, it is still incurable to the present day. And yet God has made there within the law the provision giving Him the... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 14:1-57

Leviticus 14:3. The plague of leprosy. This loathsome disease rendered the body torpid, and severely depressed the spirits, as is affirmed by our learned travellers in the east. It commences with white spots on the hands and feet, or on the face, assuming gradually a scaly appearance. It spreads up the arms and legs; in its progress the joints become less active, the skin swells, and the pulse is lowered. In more stubborn cases the flesh looks like that of horses, when said to have greasy... read more

Ver. 8. Shall wash his clothes, and shave. ] This the leper was to do the first day of his cleansing; to teach men to be thorough in the practice of mortification, at the first conversion: "laying a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on... read more

Lev 14:9 But it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair he shall shave off: and he shall wash his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and he shall be clean. Ver. 9. Even all his hair he shall shave off. ] To show that repentance and mortification is not the work of a day, as he said in another case, Ezr 10:13 but of a man’s whole life. There must be a daily shaving and paring of lusts and... read more
