Exegesis
The particle vehinneh {וְהִנֵּה | wə-hinnēh} ‘and behold’ shifts focus to the diagnostic criteria: ein-bah {אֵין־בָּהּ | ʾēn-bāh} ‘there is none in it’ with se'ar lavan {שֵׂעָר לָבָן | sēʿār lāḇān} ‘white hair,’ followed by u-shefaḷah einenah {וּשְׁפָלָה אֵינֶנָּה | ū-šep̄ālāh ʾēnennāh} ‘and depressed it is not’ setting a spatial limit (min-haor {מִן־הָעוֹר | min-hāʿôr} ‘than the skin’), and vehi kehah {וְהִיא כֵּהָה | wə-hîʾāh kēhāh} ‘and it is faded’ adding a chromatic description.
