“And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water:”
He shall kill one of the birds over fresh water in a clay pot. The slaughter of the first bird over fresh water in a clay pot — identical to verse 5 for the person's restoration ceremony. The blood-and-water mixture created in the clay pot is the same cleansing agent for the house as for the person. The consistent materials and procedure across the person and house restoration ceremonies communicates the unified character of the Levitical restoration framework.
