Exegesis
The noun hannega {הַנֶּגַע | han-nə-ˈgaʿ} ‘the infected spot’ is modified by yerakrak {יְרַקְרַק | ye-rak-ˈrak} ‘greenish’ and adamdam {אֲדַמְדָּם | ʾă-dam-ˈdam} ‘reddish’.
In context — Leviticus 13:49
And if the affected spot is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the leather, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any leather article, it is a spot of leprosy , and it shall be shown to the priest .
