What happens when the boil heals?

Lévitique 13:19 (NEG79)

19 et qu'il se manifestera, à la place où était l'ulcère, une tumeur blanche ou une tache d'un blanc rougeâtre, cet homme se montrera au sacrificateur.

The first skin condition refers to a “boil” that has healed. The term is specifically used of the sixth plague in Egypt (Exodus 9:9–11). Once the boil has begun healing, complications begin to set in. Either a white swelling or a reddish-white spot appears in place of the boil. “Reddish” adds the idea that the area is still infected.
