How preachers through history handled this text
7 public-domain excerpts on Leviticus 13, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“The priest is told what judgment to make, if there were any appearance of a leprosy in old sores; and such is the danger of those who having escaped the pollutions of the world are again entangled therein.

— Matthew Henry, Commentary on the Whole Bible (Concise), on Leviticus 13:18–44 (Public Domain)
