Negaim4: 11
בַּהֶרֶת כַּחֲצִי גְרִיס וְאֵין בָּהּ כְּלוּם. נוֹלְדָה בַהֶרֶת כַּחֲצִי גְרִיס וּבָהּ שְׁתֵּי שְׂעָרוֹת, הֲרֵי זוֹ לְהַחֲלִיט. מִפְּנֵי שֶׁאָמְרוּ: אִם בַּהֶרֶת קָדְמָה לְשֵׂעָר לָבָן, טָמֵא, וְאִם שֵׂעָר לָבָן קָדַם לְבַהֶרֶת, טָהוֹר. וְאִם סָפֵק, טָמֵא, וְרַבִּי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ קִהָה.
A baheres half the size of a gris has no [other symptoms] inside it. [Another] baheres half the size of a gris appears that has two hairs. This nega is confirmed, because [the Sages] stated: If the baheres preceded the white hair, [the afflicted person] is tamei, but if the white hair preceded the baheres, he is tahor. If it is uncertain, [the afflicted person] is tamei, but R’ Yehoshua disapproves [of this ruling].
Negaim5: 1
כָּל סָפֵק נְגָעִים טָהוֹר חוּץ מִזֶּה וְעוֹד אַחֵר. וְאֵיזֶה זֶה? מִי שֶׁהָיְתָה בוֹ בַהֶרֶת כִּגְרִיס וְהִסְגִּירָהּ, בְּסוֹף שָׁבוּעַ וַהֲרֵי הִיא כְּסֶלַע, סָפֵק שֶׁהִיא הִיא סָפֵק שֶׁאַחֶרֶת בָּאָה תַחְתֶּיהָ, טָמֵא.
Any doubt concerning negaim is ruled tahor, except for this [last] case and [the next] one. And what is [the next case]? Someone had a baheres the size of a gris that [the Kohen] confined. At the end of the week [of confinement], it was the size of a sela, [but] it is uncertain whether this is [the original nega that spread] or a different [nega] that replaced it. [The Kohen rules it confirmed] tamei.
