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

But when raw flesh appeareth in him,.... Between the white spots, scabs, or swellings, or in the midst of them:

he shall be unclean; be pronounced unclean, and be subject to all the prescriptions of the law concerning lepers.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The disease here indicated appears to be that now known as Lepra commonis, the common White Leprosy, or Dry Tetter. It first shows itself in reddish pimples, the surface of which becomes white and scaly, spreading in a circular form until they meet each other and cover large patches of the body. It scarcely affects the general health, and for the most part disappears of itself, though it often lasts for years.

From his head even to his foot, wheresoever. the priest looketh - The first appearance of the Lepra Commonis may take place in any part of the body, especially, however, at the larger joints of the limbs; but the spots of elephantiasis are almost always first seen, on those parts which are habitually exposed, the face, ears and hands.

Leviticus 13:14

Raw flesh - See Leviticus 13:10.

Leviticus 13:15

Boil - Probably ulcer. In Job 2:7, and Deuteronomy 28:27, Deuteronomy 28:35, it would seem highly probable that the word expresses the ulcers of elephantiasis.
