Leviticus 13:23-25
New English Translation
23 But if the bright spot stays in its place and has not spread,[a] it is the scar of the boil, so the priest is to pronounce him clean.[b]
A Burn on the Skin
24 “When a body has a burn on its skin[c] and the raw area of the burn becomes a reddish white or white bright spot, 25 the priest must examine it,[d] and if[e] the hair has turned white in the bright spot and it appears to be deeper than the skin,[f] it is a disease that has broken out in the burn.[g] The priest is to pronounce the person unclean.[h] It is a diseased infection.[i]
