It is mentioned in the Old Testament as a sign of God's displeasure and as a condition requiring purification under the Mosaic Law.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b><br><br>1. <b><a href="/leviticus/13-47.htm">Leviticus 13:47-59</a></b>: In the Levitical laws, mildew is addressed in the context of defiling molds on clothing. The passage provides detailed instructions for the examination and treatment of garments afflicted with mildew. If the mildew persists after washing, the garment is to be burned, signifying the seriousness of maintaining purity and cleanliness among the Israelites.<br><br> <b>"If any fabric is contaminated with mildew—any wool or linen garment, any weave or knit of linen or wool, or any leather or anything made of leather—and if the contamination in the fabric, the leather, the weave or knit, or any leather article is greenish or reddish, it is a mildew and must be shown to the priest."</i> (<a href="/leviticus/13-47.htm">Leviticus 13:47-49</a>)<br><br>2. <b><a href="/leviticus/14-33.htm">Leviticus 14:33-57</a></b>: This passage extends the laws concerning mildew to houses. When mildew is found in a house, the priest is to inspect it, and if the mildew is spreading, the house must be cleansed or, in severe cases, demolished. This reflects the importance of holiness and the removal of impurity from the community.<br><br> <b>"The LORD also said to Moses and Aaron, 'When you enter the land of Canaan, which I am giving you as your possession, and I put a mildew contamination in a house in the land you possess, the owner of the house must go and tell the priest, ‘Something like mildew has appeared in my house.’"</i> (<a href="/leviticus/14-33.htm">Leviticus 14:33-35</a>)<br><br>3. <b><a href="/deuteronomy/28-22.htm">Deuteronomy 28:22</a></b>: Mildew is listed among the curses that would come upon Israel if they disobeyed God's commandments. It is grouped with other calamities such as disease and drought, emphasizing its role as a tool of divine retribution.<br><br> <b>"The LORD will strike you with wasting disease, with fever and inflammation, with scorching heat and drought, and with blight and mildew, which will plague you until you perish."</i> (<a href="/deuteronomy/28-22.htm">Deuteronomy 28:22</a>)<br><br><b>Theological Significance:</b><br><br>In the biblical context, mildew is more than a mere physical ailment; it is a symbol of spiritual impurity and divine judgment. The meticulous laws concerning mildew in Leviticus highlight the holiness required by God and the need for His people to remain separate from defilement. The presence of mildew, whether in garments or houses, necessitated a response that involved the priesthood, underscoring the role of mediation and purification in maintaining the covenant relationship with God.<br><br>The mention of mildew in Deuteronomy as part of the curses for disobedience serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of turning away from God's commandments. It illustrates the broader theme of covenant blessings and curses that permeate the Old Testament, where faithfulness to God results in prosperity and protection, while disobedience leads to suffering and loss.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context:</b><br><br>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, mildew and other forms of mold were common issues due to the climate and building materials. The biblical laws concerning mildew reflect a practical concern for health and hygiene, as well as a theological concern for ritual purity. The detailed instructions for dealing with mildew demonstrate the comprehensive nature of the Mosaic Law, which governed not only spiritual and moral conduct but also everyday life.<br><br>Overall, mildew in the Bible serves as a tangible representation of the broader spiritual truths concerning sin, purity, and the necessity of divine intervention for cleansing and restoration.<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>(the rendering of a Hebrew word meaning "to be yellow, " yellowness), the result of cutting east winds blighting and thus rendering the grain unproductive (<a href="/deuteronomy/28-22.htm">Deuteronomy 28:22</a>; <a href="/1_kings/8-37.htm">1 Kings 8:37</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/6-28.htm">2 Chronicles 6:28</a>). <a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
