Strong's Lexicon mispach: Scab, eruption, or sore Original Word: מִשְׂפָח Word Origin: Derived from the root סָפַח (saphach), meaning "to attach" or "to join." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "mispach," the concept of skin diseases and ceremonial uncleanness is addressed in the New Testament, particularly in the context of Jesus healing lepers (e.g., Luke 17:12-19). Usage: The term "mispach" refers to a scab or an eruption on the skin, often associated with leprosy or other skin diseases in the context of ancient Israelite purity laws. It is used in the context of diagnosing skin conditions that could render a person ceremonially unclean according to the Levitical code. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, skin diseases were not only a medical concern but also a religious and social issue. The Law of Moses provided detailed instructions for the diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases, particularly leprosy, which was considered a serious condition. Those afflicted were often isolated from the community to prevent contamination and to maintain ritual purity. The priests played a crucial role in examining and declaring individuals clean or unclean.
