- Leviticus 13:55And the priest shall look on the plague, after that it is washed: and, behold, if the plague have not changed his colour, and the plague be not spread; it is unclean; thou shalt burn it in the fire; it is fret inward, whether it be bare within or without.After it has been washed, the priest is to reexamine it, and if the mildewed article has not changed in appearance, it is unclean.
