46 "Anyone who goes into the house while it is closed up will be unclean till evening.
46 Moreover he that goeth into the house all the while that it is shut up shall be unclean until the even.
46 Moreover, whoever enters the house while it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening,
46 Anyone who enters the house while it is closed up is unclean until evening.
46 Moreover he who goes into the house at all while it is shut up shall be unclean until evening.
46 Those who enter the house during the period of quarantine will be ceremonially unclean until evening,
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 14:46
Commentary on Leviticus 14:33-53
(Read Leviticus 14:33-53)
The leprosy in a house is unaccountable to us, as well as the leprosy in a garment; but now sin, where that reigns in a house, is a plague there, as it is in a heart. Masters of families should be aware, and afraid of the first appearance of sin in their families, and put it away, whatever it is. If the leprosy is got into the house, the infected part must be taken out. If it remain in the house, the whole must be pulled down. The owner had better be without a dwelling, than live in one that was infected. The leprosy of sin ruins families and churches. Thus sin is so interwoven with the human body, that it must be taken down by death.
