Regulations about skin diseases

Lev 13:1–46

13Then Yahweh told Mosheh and Aharon, 2“If someone discovers a raised area on their skin, or a scab or a bright spot, and it seems like an infectious skin disease, then that person should be taken to a priest (Aharon or one of his sons), 3and the priest must examine their skin. If the hair in the infected spot has turned white and the infection appears to be deeper under the skin, then it’s confirmed as an infectious skin disease and so the priest must pronounce the person as ‘unclean’. 4However, if it’s a white spot that doesn’t seem to be deep, and the hair hasn’t turned white, then the priest must order the person to be quarantined for seven days. 5Then on the seventh day, if the infection is still there but hasn’t spread, then the priest must order a further seven days of quarantine. 6After that next seven days, if the infection has faded and not spread, the priest must pronounce the person as ‘clean’—it was just a sore so the person must wash their clothes and then they’ll be ‘clean’. 7However, if the spot does spread across the skin after the priest has pronounced the person to be ‘clean’, then they must return to the priest a second time. 8The priest must reexamine that person and if the spot on the skin has spread, then the priest must pronounce them ‘unclean’ because they have a skin disease.

9“Anyone who develops an infectious skin disease must be taken to a priest 10to be examined. If it’s a white spot on the skin and the hair has turned white, and there’s raw flesh visible in the swelling, 11then it’s a chronic skin disease, and the priest must pronounce that person as ‘unclean’ and can’t just be temporarily quarantined. 12However, if the disease has broken out and spread across the entire body from head to toe as far as can be observed by the priest, 13then after the priest’s confirmation that it covers the entire body, that person can be pronounced as ‘clean’ again as all of it has turned white. 14However, if any raw flesh shows itself, then they’ll become ‘uncleanthat same day. 15The priest must examine that raw flesh and must pronounce that person as ‘unclean’ due to their skin disease. 16Afterwards, if it heals over and goes white, then they can return to the priest 17to be reexamined, and if the infection has indeed gone white, then the priest can pronounce it as not being infectious and the person as ‘clean’ again.

18“When someone has a boil on their skin, but it heals 19leaving behind a white swelling or a reddish-white bright spot, then that person must show themself to the priest. 20The priest will examine it, and if it is indeed more than just skin deep and its hair has turned white, then the priest must pronounce that person as ‘unclean’ because an infectious skin disease has broken out from the original boil. 21However, if the priest’s examination finds not white hair on it, and it’s not more than skin deep, and it’s fading, then he will order that person quarantined for seven days 22and if it spreads further on their skin, then the priest must declare that person as ‘unclean’ because it’s infectious. 23But if the bright spot hasn’t spread during the quarantine, then it’s just the scar from the boil and the priest can pronounce the person as ‘clean’.

24“If someone gets a burn on their skin, and the burn area becomes reddish-white or a white spot, 25then the priest must examine it, and if the hair on the spot has turned white and the infection looks more than skin deep, then a skin disease has broken out in the burn, and the priest must pronounce that person as ‘unclean’ because it’s infectious. 26 27 28
