Leviticus 13:27 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 13:27

And the priest shall look upon him the seventh day
When that is come, any time on that day; not needing to wait until the end of it, or till, the seven days are precisely up; the same is to be understood in all places in this chapter where the like is used: [and] if it be spread much abroad in the skin;
in the space of seven days: then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it [is] the plague of
leprosy:
according to the law; so that it was necessary, in such a case for him to conform to it in order to his cleansing.

Leviticus 13:27 In-Context

26 But if, after looking at it, the priest sees that there is no white hair on the bright place, and it is not deeper than the skin, and is not very bright, then let the priest keep him shut up for seven days:
27 And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; if it is increased in the skin, then the priest will say that he is unclean: it is the leper's disease.
28 And if the bright place keeps the same size and gets no greater on the skin, but is less bright, it is the effect of the burn, and the priest will say that he is clean: it is the mark of the burn.
29 And when a man or a woman has a disease on the head, or in the hair of the chin,
