Exegesis
The prohibitive lo-yevakker {לֹֽא־יְבַקֵּ֧ר | lō̆-ye-vak-kēr} ‘he shall not inspect’ creates an exception to standard procedure, with the repeated hakohen maintaining agency.
In context — Leviticus 13:36
The priest shall examine him, and if, behold, the patch has spread in the skin, the priest shall not inspect the yellow hair; he is unclean .
