54 ‎[1] THIS IS THE LAW FOR ALL MANNER OF PLAGUE OF LEPROSY. This refers to leprosy of inflammation and the burnt part in the skin. Scripture mentioned them here first [although in the section on leprosy above they are not mentioned first] because of their frequency. Then it mentioned *and for a scall*, which is also frequent. Then Scripture mentioned here, *and for the leprosy of a garment, and for a house*, followed by, *and for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot*, which are the first plagues with which Scripture opened this discussion: *When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising* etc. Scripture always mentions the *bahereth* (bright spot) last, because it is the strongest and worst form of all the plagues.
