레위기 13:27의 미드라쉬
וְרָאָ֥הוּ הַכֹּהֵ֖ן בַּיּ֣וֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִ֑י אִם־פָּשֹׂ֤ה תִפְשֶׂה֙ בָּע֔וֹר וְטִמֵּ֤א הַכֹּהֵן֙ אֹת֔וֹ נֶ֥גַע צָרַ֖עַת הִֽוא׃
칠 일만에 제사장이 그를 진찰할지니 만일 병이 크게 피부에 퍼졌으면 그는 그를 부정하다 진단할 것은 문둥병의 환처임이니라
Sifra
6) (Vayikra 13:22) ("And if it spreads, spreads, in the skin, the Cohein shall declare him tamei; it is plague.") "spreads, spreads, in the skin": What is the intent of this? Because it is written (Vayikra 13:27) "And the Cohein shall see him on the seventh day, if it spreads, spreads, in the skin," I might think that a spreading renders him unclean only on the seventh day. Whence do I derive the same for the eighth, ninth, and tenth day? From (the redundant) "spread, spread."

8) (Vayikra 13:27) "And the Cohein shall see him on the seventh day. If it has spread, spread, in the skin, etc." I might think that a spreading confers tumah only at the end of a week. Whence do I derive (that it does so) even after exemption? From (the redundant) "spread, spread."

Sifra
9) If he were confirmed through white hair, and the white hair disappeared and then returned; and, similarly, through a spreading: at first inspection, at the end of a week, after exemption — where he was confirmed through a spreading and the spreading disappeared and then returned — and, similarly, through white hair, at the end of a week and after exemption — in respect to all of these instances, it is written (the redundant) "if it has spread, spread." Why is "leprosy" written three times (in respect to "a burn," (once here and twice in 13:25)? "leprosy" — It requires the size of a garis (a Cilician bean); "leprosy" — to render what is stated in respect to a se'eth applicable to a bahereth, and what is stated in respect to a bahereth applicable to a se'eth; "leprosy" — to render what is stated in respect to a boil applicable to a burn, and what is stated in respect to a burn applicable to a boil. Why is "it" written three times (once here and twice in 13:25)? "it" — it (a burn, unlike a skin plague-spot) is not rendered tamei by the eruption of a michyah, at first inspection, at the end of a week (of quarantine), and after exemption. "it" — to exclude the spreading of bohak (white scurf) at the end of a week or after exemption. "it" — it has no fifth shade (aside from the four indicated). (And a fourth possible derivation:) "it" — boil and burn do not combine with each other.
