Numbers 12:10-11New International Version (NIV)
10 When the cloud lifted from above the tent, Miriam's skin was leprous-it became as white as snow. Aaron turned toward her and saw that she had a defiling skin disease,11 and he said to Moses, "Please, my lord, I ask you not to hold against us the sin we have so foolishly committed.

Any verse in the Bible is considered scripture.
The cure for leprosy in the Bible is significant because it demonstrates the power of faith and the ability of God to heal even the most severe illnesses. It also symbolizes the idea of spiritual cleansing and redemption, as leprosy was often associated with sin and impurity in biblical times. The healing of leprosy in the Bible serves as a powerful example of God's mercy and compassion towards those who are suffering.
The Bible cure for leprosy, which involves rituals and prayers, is not considered effective in modern medical practices. Leprosy is now treated with antibiotics and other medical interventions that have been proven to be more successful in curing the disease.
