Y sucederá que en el séptimo día se rasurará todo el cabello: se rasurará la cabeza, la barba y las cejas; todo su cabello. Entonces lavará su ropa y se lavará el cuerpo en agua, y quedará limpio.
Y ser�, que al s�ptimo d�a raer� todo el pelo de su cabeza, de su barba, y de sus cejas y raer� todo su pelo, y lavar� sus vestiduras, y lavar� su carne en aguas, y ser� limpio.

Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
shave all: Numbers 6:9, Numbers 8:7
wash his flesh: Lictenstein states that "among the Koossas - a nation of South Africa there are certain prevailing notions respecting moral - ceremonial uncleanness. All children are unclean till they are admitted among grown-up persons - which happens with the males through the various ceremonies attending circumcision all lying-in women are unclean for the first month; all men who have lost their wives, for a fortnight, and all widows for a month; a mother who has lost a child, for two days; all persons who have been present at a death, the men returning from a battle, etc. No one may have intercourse with such an unclean person, till he has washed himself, rubbed his body with fresh paint, and rinsed his mouth with milk. But he must not do this till after the lapse of a certain time, fixed by general consent for each particular case, and during this time he must wholly refrain from washing, painting, or drinking milk.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But it shall be on the seventh day,.... After he was first brought to the priest, and cleansed by the two birds, taken and used for him as directed, and he had been shaved and washed:
that he shall shave all his hair; a second time, whatsoever was grown in those seven days:
all off his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows; even all his hair he shall shave off; not only the hair of the parts mentioned, but all other, the hair of his feet also, as Aben Ezra notes, who observes, that some say, the hair of his arms, and thighs, and breast; and so according to the Misnah m, this was a second shaving, for it is said,
"in the seventh day he shaves a second time, according to the first shaving:''
he shall wash his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and he shall be clean; this was also repeated on the seventh, both the washing of his clothes, and the dipping of him in water; after which he was accounted clean, and was neither defiled nor defiling, and might go into his own tent or house, and into the tabernacle, and offer his offerings, and partake of the privileges of it, at least some of them, even the same day; according to the tradition he may eat of the tithes, and after sunset he may eat of the heave offerings, and when he has brought his atonement he may eat of the holy things n.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The best of all types of the healing of the Spirit, was the healing of the leper. In his formal cleansing, consecration, and atonement by sacrifice (see the notes at Leviticus 14:9-20), the ministers of the sanctuary bore public witness that he was restored to the blessing of communion with his brethren and with Yahweh. Hence, when the Son of God proved His divine mission by healing the lepers Matthew 11:5, He did not excuse them from going to the priest to “offer for the cleansing those things which Moses commanded” Mark 1:44; Luke 5:14 “for a testimony to the people” Matthew 8:4.
