Leviticus 14:43 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 14:43

And if the plague come again, and break out in the house
In the above signs of it: after that he hath taken away the stones;
which were infected, or ordered them to be taken away: and after he hath scraped the house;
so that there seemed to be no remains of the plague: and after it is plastered;
to prevent if possible any return of it, but in vain.

Leviticus 14:43 In-Context

41 He is to have the inside of the house completely scraped, and the plaster that is scraped off must be dumped in an unclean place outside the city.

42 Then they must take different stones to replace the [former] ones and take additional plaster to replaster the house.

43 "If the contamination reappears in the house after the stones have been pulled out, and after the house has been scraped and replastered,

44 the priest must come and examine it. If the contamination has spread in the house, it is harmful mildew; the house is unclean.

45 It must be torn down with its stones, its beams, and all its plaster, and taken outside the city to an unclean place.
