Exegesis
The phrase u-mar-’eh ha-nnega {וּמַרְאֵה הַנֶּגֶע | ū-mar-ʾē ha-nē-geʿ} ‘and the appearance of the sore’ is modified by amok me-or {עָמֹק מֵע֣וֹר | ʿā-mōq mē-ʼōr} ‘deeper than the skin’.
In context — Leviticus 13:3
And the priest shall examine the sore on the skin of the flesh. If the hair in the sore has turned white and the appearance of the sore is deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is a sore of leprosy . When the priest looks at it, he shall pronounce him unclean.
