Default How to continue loop after deleting row?

I have the following loop:

for each cell in selection ' n-by-m area
if 'condition based on cell.value' then
cell.entireRow.delete
else
' process cell
end if
next

As written, if the range is A1:B10 and A2 meets the
condition, the loop continues by processing (the new) B2
after deleting row 2 -- which means that the new A2 is
never processed.

Is there an easy way to continue the loop by processing
(the new) A2 after deleting row 2?

I work around the problem by adding "goto again" after
the entireRow.delete operation, where "again" is above
the for-each statement. That is, I restart the for-loop.

That is okay for now because with my data, I only delete
one row near the top of the selection. Thus, I lose little
efficiency. But I would like to know the "right" way to do
this, for the future.

(I tried putting "again" at the top of loop just after the
for-each statement, but I got a debug error because
"cell" is apparently undefined after the deletion.)
