55 ‎[1] AFTER THAT THE PLAGUE IS WASHED. The word *hukkabbes* (is washed) is an infinitive whose subject is not identified. It is in the *hofal*.
‎[2] A FRET. The word *pechetet* (fret) has no brother in Scripture. It is known in Rabbinic literature. *Pechetet* refers to a defect which appears in the *karachat* (bareness…within) or the *gabachat* (bareness…without) of the garments. The Gaon says that *karachat* refers to the underside of the garment, for *gabachat* refers to the face of the garment. If this is the case, then the word *kere’ach* (bald) (v. 40) refers to the back of the head. He explained well.
