Contextual Overview
1 And Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 2 When man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, or a scab, or a bright spot, and it becomes in the skin of his flesh the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons the priests: 3 and the priest shall look at the plague in the skin of the flesh: and if the hair in the plague has turned white, and the appearance of the plague is deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is the plague of leprosy; and the priest shall look at him, and pronounce him unclean. 4 And if the bright spot is white in the skin of his flesh, and the appearance thereof is not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof has not turned white, then the priest shall shut up [him that has] the plague seven days: 5 and the priest shall look at him the seventh day: and see if, in his eyes, the plague has stayed, the plague has not spread in the skin, then the priest shall shut him up seven days more: 6 and the priest shall look at him again the seventh day; and see if the plague is dim, and the plague has not spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean: it is a scab: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean. 7 But if the scab spreads abroad in the skin, after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the priest again: 8 and the priest shall look; and see if the scab has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is leprosy. 9 When the plague of leprosy is in man, then he shall be brought to the priest; 10 and the priest shall look; and see if there is a white rising in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is quick raw flesh in the rising,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
It [is] an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh,.... An inveterate one, of long standing and continuance, an obstinate one, not to be cured by medicine; as this sort of leprosy was, and therefore the person was sent not to a physician, but to the priest: the leprosy of sin is an old disease, brought by man into the world with him, and continues with him from his youth upwards, and nothing but the grace of God and blood of Christ can remove it:
and the priest shall pronounce him unclean, and shall not shut him up; there being no doubt at all of it being a leprosy, and of his uncleanness, and therefore no need to shut him up for further examination, but to turn him out of the camp till his purification was over:
for he [is] unclean; in a ceremonial sense, and was obliged to the law for cleansing, such as after given.
