Levítico 14:36 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 14:36

Then the priest shall command that they empty the house
Clear it of all persons and things; everybody was obliged to go out of it; and all the furniture of it, all the household goods in it, were to be removed from it: before the priest go [into it] to see the plague, that all that [is] in
the house be not made clean;
as would be the case should the priest view it, and pronounce it unclean before the removal of them; agreeably to which is the Jewish tradition ^F11, before a priest comes to see the plague, not anything in the house is defiled; but after he is come to see it, even bundles of sticks, and of reeds, are defiled, which are not reckoned under the uncleanness to be removed: so that this was a kindness to the owner of the house, that his loss might not be so great as it otherwise would be, if he did not take care to get his goods out previous to the inspection of the priest: and afterward the priest shall go in to see the house;
to examine it, whether the signs of leprosy are in it.

Levítico 14:36 In-Context

34 “Quando vocês entrarem na terra de Canaã, que dou a vocês como propriedade, e eu puser mancha de mofo numa casa, na terra que lhes pertence,

35 o dono da casa irá ao sacerdote e dirá: Parece-me que há mancha de mofo em minha casa.

36 Antes de examinar o mofo, o sacerdote ordenará que desocupem a casa para que nada que houver na casa se torne impuro. Depois disso, o sacerdote irá examinar a casa.

37 Examinará as manchas nas paredes e, se elas forem esverdeadas ou avermelhadas e parecerem mais profundas do que a superfície da parede,

38 o sacerdote sairá da casa e a deixará fechada por sete dias.
