Minor Skin Conditions and Baldness

Leviticus 13:38-44

When a man or a woman has white spots on the skin,

the priest shall examine them, and if the spots are dull white, it is a harmless rash that has broken out on the skin; the person is clean.

Now if a man loses his hair and is bald, he is still clean.

Or if his hairline recedes and he is bald on his forehead, he is still clean.

But if there is a reddish-white sore on the bald head or forehead, it is an infectious disease breaking out on it.

The priest is to examine him, and if the swelling of the infection on his bald head or forehead is reddish-white like a skin disease,

the man is diseased; he is unclean. The priest must pronounce him unclean because of the infection on his head.
