'Infection' in the Bible

The priest will examine the infection on the skin of his body. If the hair in the infection has turned white and the infection appears to be deeper than the skin of his body, it is a skin disease. After the priest examines him, he must pronounce him unclean.

The priest will then reexamine him on the seventh day. If he sees that the infection remains unchanged and has not spread on the skin, the priest must quarantine him for another seven days.

The priest will examine him again on the seventh day. If the infection has faded and has not spread on the skin, the priest is to pronounce him clean; it is a scab. The person is to wash his clothes and will become clean.

The priest will examine him, and if the infection has turned white, the priest must pronounce the infected person clean; he is clean.

If it spreads further on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is an infection.

“When a man or woman has an infection on the head or chin,

the priest must examine the infection. If it appears to be deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and sparse, the priest must pronounce the person unclean. It is a scaly outbreak, a skin disease of the head or chin.

When the priest examines the scaly infection, if it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, the priest must quarantine the person with the scaly infection for seven days.

The priest will reexamine the infection on the seventh day. If the scaly outbreak has not spread and there is no yellow hair in it and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin,

But if there is a reddish-white infection on the bald head or forehead, it is a skin disease breaking out on his head or forehead.

The priest is to examine him, and if the swelling of the infection on his bald head or forehead is reddish-white, like the appearance of a skin disease on his body,

the man is afflicted with a skin disease; he is unclean. The priest must pronounce him unclean; the infection is on his head.

He will remain unclean as long as he has the infection; he is unclean. He must live alone in a place outside the camp.
