Leviticus 14:39 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 14:39

And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall
look
On the seventh day from his shutting of it up, he shall open it again, go into it, and observe in what condition it is: and, behold, [if] the plague be spread in the walls of the house:
the hollow strakes are become deeper, or the coloured spots are become larger: spreading was always a sign of leprosy, both in the bodies of men, and in garments.

Leviticus 14:39 In-Context

37 and examine the mildew. If there are greenish or reddish spots that appear to be eating into the wall,
38 he shall leave the house and lock it up for seven days.
39 On the seventh day he shall return and examine it again. If the mildew has spread,
40 he shall order that the stones on which the mildew is found be removed and thrown into some unclean place outside the city.
41 After that he must have all the interior walls scraped and the plaster dumped in an unclean place outside the city.
