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

25 Then the priest must look at the spot carefully. Suppose the hair in it has turned white. And suppose the spot seems to be under the skin. Then the person has a skin disease. It has broken out where he was burned. The priest must announce that the person is 'unclean.' He has a skin disease.
26 "But suppose the priest looks at the spot carefully. Suppose there is no white hair in it. Suppose the spot is not under the skin. And suppose it has faded. Then the priest must make the person stay away from everyone else for seven days.
27 On the seventh day the priest must look him over carefully. If the spot is spreading in the skin, the priest must announce that the person is 'unclean.' He has a skin disease.
28 "But suppose the spot has not changed. It has not spread in the skin. And it has faded. Then the burn has caused it to swell. The priest must announce that the person is 'clean.' It is only a scar from the burn.
29 "Suppose a man or woman has a sore on the head or chin.
