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 he shall examine the plague; and indeed if the plague is on the walls of the house with ingrained streaks, greenish or reddish, which appear to be deep in the wall,

38 then the priest shall go out of the house, to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days.

39 And the priest shall come again on the seventh day and look; and indeed if the plague has spread on the walls of the house,

40 then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which is the plague, and they shall cast them into an unclean place outside the city.

41 And he shall cause the house to be scraped inside, all around, and the dust that they scrape off they shall pour out in an unclean place outside the city.
