Leviticus 13:23 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 13:23

But if the bright spot stay in his place, [and] spread not,
&c.] Continues as it was when first viewed: it [is] a burning boil;
but not a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall pronounce him clean;
as clear of a leprosy, and so not bound by the law of it, though attended with an inflammation or burning ulcer.

Leviticus 13:23 In-Context

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

22 If it continues to spread over the skin, the priest will declare the person unclean; it is an infection.

23 But if the shiny spot remains where it was and does not spread, it is just a scar from the boil. The priest will declare the person clean.

24 Whenever there is a burn on someone's skin, and the raw patch of the burn becomes a reddish-white or white shiny spot,

25 the priest will examine it. If the hair has turned white in the shiny spot, and it appears to be deeper than the skin, it is a case of skin disease that has broken out in the burn. The priest will declare the person unclean; it is an infection of skin disease.
