“And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after that he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the house, and after it is plaistered;”
If the defiling mold reappears in the house after the stones have been torn out and the house scraped and plastered. The reappearance of mold after the full treatment — stone removal, scraping, new plaster — is the sign of persistent defilement that cannot be addressed through partial measures. The mold that survives the comprehensive treatment of verses 40–42 is the mold that confirms the house is defiled beyond repair.
