Leviticus 13:15

15 The priest shall examine you again, and if he sees an open sore, he shall pronounce you unclean. An open sore means a dreaded skin disease, and you are unclean.

Leviticus 13:15 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 13:15

And the priest shall see the raw flesh
Or when he sees it, the person being brought to him to be viewed:

and pronounce him to be unclean;
or shall pronounce him to be unclean:

[for] the raw flesh [is] unclean;
made a man so in a ceremonial sense; (See Gill on Leviticus 13:10);

it [is] a leprosy;
wherever any quick raw flesh appears in a swelling.

Leviticus 13:15 In-Context

13 the priest shall examine you again. If he finds that it actually has covered the whole body, he shall pronounce you ritually clean. If your whole skin has turned white, you are ritually clean.
14 But from the moment an open sore appears, you are unclean.
15 The priest shall examine you again, and if he sees an open sore, he shall pronounce you unclean. An open sore means a dreaded skin disease, and you are unclean.
16 But when the sore heals and becomes white again, you shall go to the priest,
17 who will examine you again. If the sore has turned white, you are ritually clean, and the priest shall pronounce you clean.
