Context of Mark 1:42

40Then a man with a serious skin disease came to him. The man fell to his knees and begged Jesus, “If you’re willing, you can make me clean.” 41Jesus felt sorry for him, reached out, touched him, and said, “I’m willing. So be clean!” Immediately, his skin disease went away, and he was clean. 43Jesus sent him away at once and warned him, 44“Don’t tell anyone about this! Instead, show yourself to the priest. Then offer the sacrifices which Moses commanded as proof to people that you are clean.”
