Leviticus 13:17
And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the plague be turned into white; then the priest shall pronounce him clean that hath the plague: he is clean.
And the priest shall see him,.... Review him, and examine him thoroughly:
and, behold, if the plague be turned into white; the raw flesh in the swelling, which looked red, is become white:
then the priest shall pronounce him clean that hath the plague; that was supposed to have the plague of leprosy; but upon a review, and on this change of things, has not, he shall declare him free from it,
he is clean; and under no obligation to the laws and rites concerning it.
