Leviticus 13:47 – NASB vs. HCSB vs. ESV
Leviticus 13:47 NASB “When a garment has a mark of leprosy in it, whether it is a wool garment or a linen garment,
Leviticus 13:47 HCSB “If a fabric is contaminated with mildew–in wool or linen fabric,
Leviticus 13:47 ESV “When there is a case of leprous disease in a garment, whether a woolen or a linen garment,
Since leprosy as is known today is a skin disease, the HCSB’s decision to not translate as “leprosy” makes contextual sense. Mildew or mold is most likely the correct understanding.
