This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

If the mole had not spread during the seven days, the priest was to cause the fabric in which the mole appeared to be washed, and then shut it up for seven days more. If the mole did not alter its appearance after being washed, even though it had not spread, the fabric was unclean, and was therefore to be burned. “It is a corroding in the back and front” (of the fabric of leather). פְּחֶתֶת, from פָּחַת, in Syriac fodit, from which comes פַּחַת a pit, lit., a digging: here a corroding depression. קָרַחַת a bald place in the front or right side, גַּבַּחַת a bald place in the back or left side of the fabric or leather.
