the plague. spot: mark too weak for person, though suited for house (Leviticus 14:34): "plague" and "stroke"would be too strong in every case.

leprosy. Hebrew. zar'ath, from zar'a, to strike down,. leper being one stricken of God. One of the four points which Christ endorses Leviticus as being written by Moses: 1. Circumcision, Leviticus 12:3 (John 7:22; John 7:23). 2. Law of leper, Leviticus 14:3 (Matthew 8:4). 3. The shewbread. Leviticus 24:5 (Matthew 12:4).. Death penalty for cursing parents, Leviticus 20:9 (Mark 7:10).

Leprosy is the type of what man is by nature. (All the offerings relate to what man has done or not done.) It has reference to the evil "in" him (Leviticus 13:2; Leviticus 13:9), not to the outcome of it. See note on Leviticus 13:45.
