Context of Leviticus 13:10

8The priest must look at the person. The mark might be bigger. The priest must say that the person has a disease. It is a disease that he could give to other people. 9If a person has a disease on his skin, you must bring him to the priest. The priest must look at the person. If the skin has a white mark and white hair on it, the person has a disease. If the mark has no skin on part of it, the person has a disease. But it may not be a disease that he could give to other people. 11The priest must say that the person is not clean. The priest need not keep him separate from the people. He already has a disease. 12If the disease is all over the body of the person, the priest must look at the person.
