Exegesis
The noun habaheret {הַבַּהֶרֶת | ha-bā-hê-ret} ‘the bright spot’ serves as subject, and the negative perfect lo-pashta {לֹא־פָשְׂתָ֤ה | lō-pā-śə-ṯāh} ‘has not spread’, modified by baor {בָעוֹר֙ | bā-ʿôr} ‘in the skin’, clarifies absence of progression.
Root and etymology
‘-v-rayin–vav–resh
“skin, hide”
In context — Leviticus 13:28
And if the bright spot remains under it and has not spread in the skin, but is dull, it is the swelling of the burn; then the priest shall declare him clean, for it is a scar from the burn.
