Leviticus 13:34-37 ▼

34 The priest is to examine the scab on the seventh day. If, indeed, the scab hasn't spread on the skin and it doesn't appear more extensive than skin deep, then the priest is to declare him clean. He is to wash his garments and be clean.

35 |But if the scales spread on the skin after his cleansing,

36 and the priest examines it and finds the scale to have spread on the skin, the priest need not look for yellowish hair, since he is clean.

37 If, in his opinion, the scab remained the same and a black hair grew in it, then the scab has healed. He's clean. The priest is to declare him clean.
