Leviticus 13:28

28 But if the shiny spot remains where it was, has not spread over the skin, and is faded, it is just swelling from the burn. The priest will declare the person clean, because it is just the scar from the burn.

Leviticus 13:28 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 13:28

And if the bright spot stay in his place, [and] spread not in
the skin
If, after being shut up, seven days, it appears that the spot is no larger than, when it was first viewed, but is as it was, and not at all increased: but it [be] somewhat dark;
either not so bright as it was, or more contracted: it [is] a rising of the burning;
or a swelling of it, a swelling which sprung from it, and nothing else: the priest shall pronounce him clean;
from the leprosy, and so set him at liberty to go where he will, and dwell and converse with men as usual: for it [is] an inflammation of the burning;
or an inflammation or blister occasioned by the burning, and no leprosy.

Leviticus 13:28 In-Context

26 But if the priest examines it, and there is no white hair in the shiny spot, it is not lower than the skin, and it is faded, the priest will quarantine the person seven days.

27 On the seventh day the priest will again examine it. If it has continued to spread over the skin, the priest will declare the person unclean; it is an infection of skin disease.

28 But if the shiny spot remains where it was, has not spread over the skin, and is faded, it is just swelling from the burn. The priest will declare the person clean, because it is just the scar from the burn.

29 Whenever a man or woman has an infection, whether on the head or in the beard,

30 the priest will examine it. If it appears to be deeper than the skin, and there is thin yellow hair in it, the priest will declare the person unclean; it is a case of scabies—a skin disease of the head or beard.
