“And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scall: and, behold, if the scall be not spread in the skin, nor be in sight deeper than the skin; then the priest shall pronounce him clean: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.”
On the seventh day the priest is to examine the sore, and if it has not spread in the skin and appears to be no more than skin deep, the priest shall pronounce them clean. They must wash their clothes, and they will be clean. Non-spreading and surface-level at the end of the second isolation period: clean declaration with cloth washing. The fourteen-day total observation period for scalp and chin presentations parallels the fourteen-day period for general ambiguous cases. The cloth-washing before the clean declaration is the same purification step as in verse 6.
