Cured Leper Bathing

Leviticus / Vayikra 14:1And G-d said to Moshe:וַיְדַבֵּר יְהֹוָה אֶל־מֹשֶׁה לֵּאמֹר׃  
14:2These are the rules for purification from Leprosy.  The Kohen comes…זֹאת תִּהְיֶה תּוֹרַת הַמְּצֹרָע בְּיוֹם טׇהֳרָתוֹ וְהוּבָא אֶל־הַכֹּהֵן׃  
14:3… [to the afflicted person] outside the camp.  And [if the Kohen] sees the leper has been cured from leprosy…וְיָצָא הַכֹּהֵן אֶל־מִחוּץ לַמַּחֲנֶה וְרָאָה הַכֹּהֵן וְהִנֵּה נִרְפָּא נֶגַע־הַצָּרַעַת מִן־הַצָּרוּעַ׃  
14:8… the one who is to be purified washes his clothes, and shaves [all of] his hair [from his head and body], and washes in water, and is purified.  He will then come to the camp, and sit outside of his tent for seven days.וְכִבֶּס הַמִּטַּהֵר אֶת־בְּגָדָיו וְגִלַּח אֶת־כׇּל־שְׂעָרוֹ וְרָחַץ בַּמַּיִם וְטָהֵר וְאַחַר יָבוֹא אֶל־הַמַּחֲנֶה וְיָשַׁב מִחוּץ לְאׇהֳלוֹ שִׁבְעַת יָמִים׃  
14:9And on the seventh day, he shall shave all of his hair, [including the hair] on his head, his beard, and his eyebrows.  And he will then wash his clothes, and bathe, and will be purified.וְהָיָה בַיּוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי יְגַלַּח אֶת־כׇּל־שְׂעָרוֹ אֶת־רֹאשׁוֹ וְאֶת־זְקָנוֹ וְאֵת גַּבֹּת עֵינָיו וְאֶת־כׇּל־שְׂעָרוֹ יְגַלֵּחַ וְכִבֶּס אֶת־בְּגָדָיו וְרָחַץ אֶת־בְּשָׂרוֹ בַּמַּיִם וְטָהֵר׃
