Leviticus 13:17

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.
