He went back to his brothers and said, “The boy isn’t there! Where can I turn now?”

And things turned out exactly as he interpreted them to us: I was restored to my position, and the other man was impaled.”

He turned away from them and began to weep, but then came back and spoke to them again. He had Simeon taken from them and bound before their eyes.

If the shiny spot on the skin is white but does not appear to be more than skin deep and the hair in it has not turned white, the priest is to isolate the affected person for seven days.

The priest is to examine them, and if there is a white swelling in the skin that has turned the hair white and if there is raw flesh in the swelling,
