God commands Moses to place his hand into his bosom again, and when he does, it is restored.
This second stage of the sign is just as important as the first. The God who reveals corruption is also the God who can restore. The hand that became leprous is healed completely and instantly.
The sign therefore contains a redemptive pattern: revelation of uncleanness followed by restoration through divine power. It points to the truth that the same God who exposes human sin is the God who can cleanse and heal. This aligns with the language of cleansing and renewal found in Isaiah 1:18, Psalm 51:10, and 1 John 1:7.
