Exegesis

The formulaic clause tsara’at hi {צָרַ֥עַת הִֽוא׃ | ṣārā‘aṯ hîʾ} “it-is a defiling skin disease” serves as legal confirmation. English rendering preserves Hebrew sequence—observation, declaration, and diagnosis—while smoothing repetition for readability.

In contextLeviticus 13:8

And the priest will see, and behold, the rash has spread in the skin; he shall pronounce him unclean—it is a defiling skin disease.
