Leviticus 13:16

Or if the raw flesh turn again
Changes its colour, from redness, which is in raw flesh:

and be changed unto white:
and does not look ruddy as flesh in common does, nor red and fiery, as raw and proud flesh, but is white, of the same colour with the swelling or scab:

he shall come unto the priest;
again, and show himself, even though he was before by him pronounced clean.

14 But if one day inflamed flesh appears on him, he will be unclean.
15 The cohen will examine the inflamed flesh and declare him unclean; the inflamed flesh is unclean; it is tzara'at.
16 However, if the inflamed flesh again turns white, he is to come to the cohen.
17 The cohen will examine him, and if he sees that the sores have turned white, then the cohen is to declare clean the person with the sores; he is clean.
