Leviticus 14:42 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 14:42

And they shall take other stones
From elsewhere, such as are sound and whole: and put [them] in the place of these stones;
such as will exactly answer them, as to number and size, and so fill up the space vacant by the removal of the other, and support the building: and he shall take other mortar, and plaster the house;
the master of the house was to do this, or take care that it was done; but others by the order of the priest, as they took away the tainted stones, put others in their place.

Leviticus 14:42 In-Context

40 he must order that the contaminated stones be pulled out and thrown into an unclean place outside the city.

41 And he shall have the inside of the house scraped completely and the plaster that is scraped off dumped into an unclean place outside the city.

42 So different stones must be obtained to replace the contaminated ones, as well as additional mortar to replaster the house.

43 If the mildew reappears in the house after the stones have been torn out and the house has been scraped and replastered,

44 the priest must come and inspect it. If the mildew has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew; the house is unclean.
