SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:41

Y si a la parte de su rostro se le pelare la cabeza, es calvo por delante, pero limpio.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 41. And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head towards his face , etc.] That is, from the crown of his head towards his forehead and temples, the fore part of his head; and so the Misnic doctors distinguish baldness, which is from the crown of the head descending behind to the channel of the neck; and that here mentioned, which is from the crown of the head descending to his face and forehead, over against the hair above f451 : he [is] forehead bald ; to distinguish him from him that is bald behind: [yet is] he clean ; as the other: these cases are observed, that it might not be concluded that every man that shed his hair or was bald either before or behind was a leper, because the hair of a leper used to fall off from him; if he had not the other signs of leprosy, and which were the sure and true signs of it before mentioned.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 18-44 - The priest is told what judgment to make, if there were any appearanc of a leprosy in old sores; and such is the danger of those who havin escaped the pollutions of the world are again entangled therein. Or, in a burn by accident, ver. #(24). The burning of strife and contentio often occasions the rising and breaking out of that corruption, whic proves that men are unclean. Human life lies exposed to man grievances. With what troops of diseases are we beset on every side and thy all entered by sin! If the constitution be healthy, and the body lively and easy, we are bound to glorify God with our bodies Particular note was taken of the leprosy, if in the head. If the leprosy of sin has seized the head; if the judgment be corrupted, an wicked principles, which support wicked practices, are embraced, it is utter uncleanness, from which few are cleansed. Soundness in the fait keeps leprosy from the head.
