THE MESSAGE
"Whenever someone has a serious and infectious skin disease, you must bring him to the priest. The priest will examine him; if there is a white swelling in the skin, the hair is turning white, and there is an open sore in the swelling, it is a chronic skin disease. The priest will pronounce him unclean. But he doesn't need to quarantine him because he's already given his diagnosis of unclean. If a serious disease breaks out that covers all the skin from head to foot, wherever the priest looks, the priest will make a thorough examination; if the disease covers his entire body, he will pronounce the person with the sore clean—since it has turned all white, he is clean. But if they are open, running sores, he is unclean. The priest will examine the open sores and pronounce him unclean. The open sores are unclean; they are evidence of a serious skin disease. But if the open sores dry up and turn white, he is to come back to the priest who will reexamine him; if the sores have turned white, the priest will pronounce the person with the sores clean. He is clean.
New American Standard Bible (1995)
"When the infection of leprosy is on a man, then he shall be brought to the priest.

Contextual Overview

1 And ye LORDE spake vnto Moses & Aaron, & sayde: 2 Whan there ryseth vp eny thinge in the skynne of a mans flesh, whether it be a scabbe or a glistrynge whyte (as though there wolde be a leprosy in ye ßkynne of his flesh) he shal be brought vnto Aaron the prest, or to one of his sonnes amonge ye prestes. 3 And whan the prest seyth the plage vpon the ßkynne of the flesh, that the hayres are turned to whyte, and it seme deper in that place then the other ßkynne of his flesh, then is it surely a leprosy, therfore shal the prest loke vpon him, and iudge him vncleane. 4 But whan there is eny whyte plecke in the ßkynne of his flesh, and yet seme no deper then the other ßkynne of the flesh, and the hayres be not turned to whyte, the shal the prest shut him vp seuen dayes, 5 and on ye seuenth daye loke vpon him: yf the plage seme vnto him as afore, & hath frett no deper in the ßkynne, then shall the prest shut him vp yet seuen dayes mo. 6 And whan he loketh on him agayne vpon the seuenth daye, and fyndeth, that the plage be darkish, and hath frett no deper in the ßkynne, the shal he iudge him cleane, for it is but a ßkyrfe, and he shal wash his clothes, & then is he cleane. 7 But whan the scabbe fretteth farther in the ßkynne (after that he is sene of the prest, and iudged cleane) and he be now sene of the prest agayne: 8 whan the prest seyth the, yt the scabbe hath frett farther in the ßkynne, he shal iudge him vncleane, for it is surely a leprosy. 9 Whan a plage of leprosy is vpo a man, he shalbe brought vnto the prest. 10 Whan he seyth and fyndeth, that there is whyte rysen vp in the ßkynne, and the hayre turned vnto whyte, and there be rawe flesh in the sore,

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When the plague of leprosy is in a man,.... He has all the signs of it, and it is pretty manifest both to himself and others that it is upon him;

then he shall be brought unto the priest; by his friends and neighbours, if he is not willing to come of himself: a sinner insensible of the leprosy of sin, and of his unclean and miserable state through it, has no will to come to Christ the great High Priest for cleansing; but one that is sensible of it, and of Christ's ability to help and cleanse him, will come freely and gladly, and importunately seek to him for it; though indeed such an one is brought by powerful and efficacious grace to him, yet not against, but with his full will; see John 5:40; compare with this Matthew 8:1.
