Leviticus 14:48-57
_ _ the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed — The precautions here described show that there is great danger in warm countries from the house leprosy, which was likely to be increased by the smallness and rude architecture of the houses in the early ages of the Israelitish history. As a house could not contract any impurity in the sight of God, the “atonement” which the priest was to make for it must either have a reference to the sins of its occupants or to the ceremonial process appointed for its purification, the very same as that observed for a leprous person. This solemn declaration that it was “clean,” as well as the offering made on the occasion, was admirably calculated to make known the fact, to remove apprehension from the public mind, as well as relieve the owner from the aching suspicion of dwelling in an infected house. |
Leviticus 14:49
And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and (o) scarlet, and hyssop:
(o) It seems that this was a lace or string to bind the hyssop to the wood, and so was made a sprinkle: the apostle to the Hebrews calls it scarlet wool, (Hebrews 9:19). |
Leviticus 14:4- 7 Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two birds alive [ and] clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop: ... And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.
