Yes, he could change the locks again, but it would be illegal. The difference being that if he were to change the locks, it would be without their permission to do so. When Joe gave them the keys, it was understood that he was giving them control of the property and the ability to legally change the locks. Whereas, by giving Joe the keys, they have implicitly given him permission to visit/enter the premises, but they have not given him control.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
