Leviticus 13 verse 9-17
Regulations About Defiling Skin Diseases
9 “When anyone has a defiling skin disease, they must be brought to the priest. 10 The priest is to examine them, and if there is a white swelling in the skin that has turned the hair white and if there is raw flesh in the swelling, 11 it is a chronic skin disease and the priest shall pronounce them unclean. He is not to isolate them, because they are already unclean.
12 “If the disease breaks out all over their skin and, so far as the priest can see, it covers all the skin of the affected person from head to foot, 13 the priest is to examine them, and if the disease has covered their whole body, he shall pronounce them clean. Since it has all turned white, they are clean. 14 But whenever raw flesh appears on them, they will be unclean. 15 When the priest sees the raw flesh, he shall pronounce them unclean. The raw flesh is unclean; they have a defiling disease. 16 If the raw flesh changes and turns white, they must go to the priest. 17 The priest is to examine them, and if the sores have turned white, the priest shall pronounce the affected person clean; then they will be clean.
My point of view about above verses
If there is white swelling in the skin that has turned the hair white and there is raw flesh in swelling. It is a chronic skin disease and priest shall pronounce them unclean
If the skin disease spread over all skin and it covers all the skin of affected person – the priest should pronounce the person clean since it has all turned white – but if raw flesh appear the priest shall pronounce them unclean. The raw flesh is unclean.
