Leprosy seems to be a big deal in Bible times. I think it is interesting that God gives them laws about leprosy. God gives them instructions on how to tell if someone has leprosy or not.
I can see why this is an important section. Leprosy, if I remember correctly, is rather contagious and also rather miserable and deadly. If there were no laws on it, there could be chaos at times when everyone is afraid of someone with just a rash, or people are sent out of the camp for no good reason.
I see this as another way that God is taking care of His people, just like He does today.
