The ‘word’ on mold treatment
‘On the seventh day the priest shall return to inspect the house. If the mildew has spread on the walls, he is to order that
the contaminated stones be torn out and thrown into an unclean place outside the town. He must have all the inside walls of
the house scraped and the material that is scraped off dumped into an unclean place outside the town. Then they are to take
other stones to replace these and take new clay and plaster the house. If the mildew reappears in the house after the stones
have been torn out and the house is scraped and plastered, the priest is to go and examine it and, if the mildew has spread
in the house, it is a destructive mildew; the house is unclean. It must be torn down – its stones, timbers and all the plaster
– and taken out of the town to an unclean place. Anyone who goes into the house while it is closed will be unclean till evening.
Anyone who sleeps or eats in the house must wash his clothes.’
Leviticus, Chapter 14: 39–47.
