Exegesis
The nominal clause tsarevet ha-shechin hi {צָרֶבֶת הַשְּׁחִ֖ין הִ֑וא | ṣāreḇeṯ ha-šeḥīn hî’} reclassifies the lesion as a benign scar.
In context — Leviticus 13:23
But if the bright spot remains in its place and has not spread, it is a scar from the boil ; and the priest shall declare him clean.
