The context
55The priest shall examine the mark after it has been washed, and if the mark has not changed its appearance —even though the mark has not spread— it is unclean; you shall burn it with fire; it is a corrosion, whether on its back or on its front.
56 · This verse (above)
57And if it appears again in the garment or in the woven material or in the knitted material or in any article of skin, it is breaking out; you shall burn with fire that in which the mark is.
