Leviticus 13:2 – NASB vs. HCSB vs. ESV
Leviticus 13:2 NASB “When a man has on the skin of his body a swelling or a scab or a bright spot, and it becomes an infection of leprosy on the skin of his body, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons the priests.
Leviticus 13:2 HCSB “When a person has a swelling, scab, or spot on the skin of his body, and it becomes a disease on the skin of his body, he is to be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons, the priests.
Leviticus 13:2 ESV “When a person has on the skin of his body a swelling or an eruption or a spot, and it turns into a case of leprous disease on the skin of his body, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons the priests,
The HCSB does not use the term “leprosy” in the 2010 version but it does use it once in the 2004 version in 2 Samuel 3:29. The reason is because the term today refers to a different disease than referred to in the Bible. The NET Bible also does not use the term leprosy in this verse, but does in others.
