Rabbis Lebovitz and Feinstein discuss everyone's favorite Torah portion, Tazria-Metzora, and its modern day application to our daily lives.

Parshat Tazria-Metzora 5785 by Josh Rosenfeld

Tazria Metzora | 5785 | The Concept of Tum'a by Rav Elyakim Krumbein Why is ritual purity so central in Sefer Vayikra?

If you were to ask most 'sun-day christians' what one of the most boring, and irrelevant, sections of the whole Book is - even if they never hear it read anyway - many might point to the part about what they call "leprosy." Which is a good reason to at least SUSPECT that there's more to it. But Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship suggests this week that there is a WHOLE LOT more to it: Not only is the section NOT at all about "leprosy," or what we know as Hansen's Disease, there's a good case to be made, as he does, for the "why!" The Erev Shabbat (Friday evening) of the two-part Double-parsha "Tazria," then "Metzorah," Leviticus chapters 12 through 15.reading again begins with what happens on eighth day -- but this time it as after a woman "bears" a male child -- and one more thing that just isn't talked about much either: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/SSM-5-2-25-Tazria-Metzora-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 Once again, and as seems to be so often the case, the Torah portion story this week has a relevance to current events that demonstrates the timelessness of the message, EVEN if it has to do with a malady that hasn't been seen for well over a thousand years. But if the "Evil Tongue," ('lashon hora' in the Hebrew) has something to do with the plague, Mark has suggested in the past that there may be a reason. A fairly-standard warning about "gossip" [at least a subset of 'lashon hora'] is that it kills three people: the one who speaks it, the one who listens, and the one about whom it is spoken." And most discussion of the actual plague, called "tzaraat" in Hebrew, and there is no actual translation, tends to not only spiritualize, but personalize, the warning: 'Don't do it.' But could the reason we don't see that Divine Discipline manifested with people being marked as "unclean, unclean," be an aspect of something much bigger? And when did what has been referred to as "Supernatural Spiritual Discipline" actually come to an end? Or did it?

Jesus famously healed lepers, but on one occasion something strange happened. He sternly told a leper to go straight to the priest. But the leper didn't listen to Jesus, and by this we learn an important prophetic warning about how this sin affects believers today. Who does the leper represent? Why did Jesus tell him to follow Leviticus? And why did he not listen?

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, we explore the portions of Tazria and Metzorah, focusing on themes of purity, spiritual growth, and the impact of environment. Drawing from the opening verse of Tazria (Leviticus 12:1), we discuss the concept of ritual impurity and parallels it with the order of creation, where mankind's purity follows that of animals, as explained by Rashi and the Midrash. We emphasize the importance of what we "plant" in our lives—both physically and spiritually—using the metaphor of sowing seeds to illustrate how our choices in food, media, and environment shape who we become and how our children develop. Through personal anecdotes, including his grandfather's journey to Torah scholarship and his own childhood experience in Brooklyn, Rabbi Wolbe underscores the need to protect ourselves and our children from negative influences, such as non-kosher food and harmful media. He also highlights the spiritual significance of kosher laws, explaining how they safeguard the soul, and shares insights into the Jewish concept of Gemachs (free loan societies) as acts of kindness that foster positive community influence. The episode concludes with a call to surround ourselves with virtuous environments to ensure spiritual and moral growth._____________This episode (Ep 7.27) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Tazria-Metzora is dedicated in honor of our President & in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on April 29, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 2, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.
