Leviticus 13:2 describes the initial presentation of a skin disease to the priest — the same legal process of which this verse is the next step.

In Leviticus 13:34, the same cleansing procedure applies to sores on the head or chin — a parallel case to the scab on the body here.

Leviticus 14:8 describes washing clothes for a healed leper — directly continuing the cleansing process for skin diseases.

Leviticus 11:25 deals with uncleanness from touching carcasses — another purity law parallel to this skin disease regulation.

Leviticus 11:28 requires washing clothes after contact with unclean carcasses — here the same act follows a skin condition being declared clean.

Leviticus 11:40 similarly requires washing clothes after contact with a carcass — a parallel purification ritual for different impurities.

In Hebrews 9:10, these ceremonial washings are described as external regulations of the old covenant, which includes the washing commanded here.
