Leprosy: Varieties and Symptoms

13The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:

2 When a person has on the skin of his body a swelling or an eruption or a spot, and it turns into a leprous^* disease on the skin of his body, he shall be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons the priests. ⁴⁴he is leprous,^* he is unclean. The priest shall pronounce him unclean; the disease is on his head.

45 The person who has the leprous^* disease shall wear torn clothes and let the hair of his head be dishevelled; and he shall cover his upper lip and cry out, ‘Unclean, unclean.’ ⁴⁶He shall remain unclean as long as he has the disease; he is unclean. He shall live alone; his dwelling shall be outside the camp.
