Leviticus 13:14 In-Context

12 "If the skin disease spreads all over a person's body, covering his skin from his head to his feet, as far as the priest can see, the priest must look at the person's whole body.
13 If the priest sees that the disease covers the whole body and has turned all of the person's skin white, he must announce that the person is clean.
14 "But when the person has an open sore, he is unclean.
15 When the priest sees the open sore, he must announce that the person is unclean. The open sore is not clean; it is a harmful skin disease.
16 If the open sore becomes white again, the person must come to the priest.
