Journey Through the Bible Week 6 (6 of 52)
Series: 365 Day Journey Through the Bible

Leviticus 14 -Numbers 2
Day 36 February 5 - Leviticus 14 and 15
The word ''leprosy'' occurs 68 times in the bible, 55 occurrences in the Old Testament and 13 in the New Testament. The book of Leviticus introduces us to the disease which affected one's body and could contaminate a person's garments and the home that they lived in.
Point to Ponder
Leprosy is a very infectious disease that did not per say kill its victim but neither did it ever end.

Patients with leprosy experience disfigurement of the skin and bones, twisting of the limbs, and curling of the fingers to form the characteristic claw hand. Facial changes include thickening of the outer ear and collapsing of the nose.
Tumor-like growths called lepromas may form on the skin and in the respiratory tract, and the optic nerve may deteriorate. The largest number of deformities develop from loss of pain sensation due to extensive nerve damage. For instance, inattentive patients can pick up a cup of boiling water without flinching.
