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.

37 He will look at the mildew, and if the mildew on the walls of the house is green or red and goes into the wall's surface,
38 he must go out and close up the house for seven days.
39 On the seventh day the priest must come back and check the house. If the mildew has spread on the walls of the house,

41 Then the priest must have all the inside of the house scraped. The people must throw away the plaster they scraped off the walls, at a certain unclean place outside the city.
