And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh: and [when] the hair in the plague is turned white, and the plague in sight [be] deeper than the skin of his flesh, it [is] a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall look on him, and pronounce him unclean.

Commentary on Leviticus 13:3

Theological / Devotional

The priest shall look. He was to examine the infected area, for it might, or might not, be leprosy. There were two signs for which he was to look, white hair in the spot and a depression in the skin—Jews ordinarily have dark or black hair. Where these two conditions were found to exist, he was pronounced unclean.
