40. When a man loses the hair of his head, he is simply bald on the crown and not unclean.
41. So too, if he loses the hair on the front of his head, he is simply bald on the forehead and not unclean.
42. But when there is a reddish white infection on his bald crown or bald forehead, it is a scaly infection that is breaking out there.
43. If the priest, upon examination, finds that the infection spot on the bald area on the crown or forehead has the same reddish white appearance as that of a scaly infection of the skin,
44. the man has a scaly infection and is unclean. The priest shall declare him unclean; his infection is on his head.
