The Bizarre Purification of the Metzora

Taharat Hametzora

In this first video (the parsha video for Tazria, and the first video in this meal), we are introduced to a strange set of laws related to the metzora, one afflicted with tzara'at. How do we relate to such laws? In this video, Rabbi Fohrman begins to assemble clues, including the midrashic cause of tzara'at, the connection between a corpse and tzara'at, and echoes of this purification process earlier in the Torah.
