Le 14:2
14:2 This shall be the {a} law of the leper in the day of his
     cleansing: He shall be brought unto the priest:

     (a) Or, the ceremony which shall be used in his purgation.

Le 14:4
14:4 Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be
     cleansed two birds alive [and] {b} clean, and cedar wood,
     and scarlet, and hyssop:

     (b) Of birds which were permitted to be eaten.

Le 14:5
14:5 And the priest shall command that one of the birds be
     killed in an earthen vessel over {c} running water:

     (c) Running water, or of the fountains.

Le 14:7
14:7 And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from
     the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and
     shall {d} let the living bird loose into the open field.

     (d) Signifying that he that was made clean was set free,
         and restored to the company of others.

Le 14:10
14:10 And on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without
      {e} blemish, and one ewe lamb of the first year without
      blemish, and three tenth deals of fine flour [for] a meat
      offering, mingled with oil, {f} and one log of oil.

      (e) Which has no imperfection in any part.
      (f) This quantity in Hebrew is called a Log, and holds six
          eggs in measure.

Le 14:21
14:21 And if he [be] poor, and cannot get so much; then he shall
      take one lamb [for] a trespass offering to be waved, to
      make an atonement for him, and one {g} tenth deal of fine
      flour mingled with oil for a meat offering, and a log of
      oil;

      (g) Which is an Omer, @Ex 16:16.

Le 14:24
14:24 And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass
      offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall {h}
      wave them [for] a wave offering before the LORD:

      (h) Or, shall offer them as the offering that is shaken to
          and fro.

Le 14:30
14:30 And he shall offer the one of the turtledoves, or of the
      young pigeons, {i} such as he can get;

      (i) whether of them he can get.

Le 14:32
14:32 This [is] the {k} law [of him] in whom [is] the plague of
      leprosy, whose hand is not able to get [that which
      pertaineth] to his cleansing.

      (k) This order is appointed for the poor man.

Le 14:34
14:34 When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which I give to
      you for a possession, and I {l} put the plague of leprosy
      in a house of the land of your possession;

      (l) This declares that no plague nor punishment comes to
          man without God's providence and his sending.

Le 14:41
14:41 And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round
      about, and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape
      off without the city into {m} an unclean place:

      (m) Where trash was cast, and other filth, that the
          people might not be infected by them.

Le 14:45
14:45 And he shall {n} break down the house, the stones of it,
      and the timber thereof, and all the morter of the house;
      and he shall carry [them] forth out of the city into an
      unclean place.

      (n) That is, he shall command it to be pulled down, as in
          @Le 14:40.

Le 14:49
14:49 And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and
      cedar wood, and {o} scarlet, and hyssop:

      (o) It seems that this was a lace or string to bind the
          hyssop to the wood, and so was made a sprinkle: the
          apostle to the Hebrews calls it scarlet wool,
          @He 9:19.
