“And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, etc.] That there may be no remains of the infection in them, and that they might not convey an ill scent to others: so the conversation garments of the saints are to be washed in the blood of the Lamb, (<660714>Revelation 7:14); and shave off all his hair; what is here expressed in general is more particularly declared in (<031409>Leviticus 14:9); the hair of his head, beard, and eyebrows; according to Gersom, this was done by the priest, and so Maimonides says f484, that none but a priest might shave him; and yet the text seems plainly to ascribe this, as well as the washing of his clothes and himself, to the leper that was to be…”

“All his hair - Partly to discover his perfect soundness; partly to preserve him from a relapse through any relicks of it which might remain in his hair or in his clothes. Out of his tent - Out of his former habitation, in some separate place, lest some of his leprosy yet lurking in him should break forth to the infection of his family. Leviticus 14:9”
