Description

Birds who have the most fine tuned voices are mechaper (bring atonement) for tzoraas (leprosy). Malchus (rulership) is the quality of connecting to higher worlds and bina (understanding) is the quality of deep thought; when we talk we connect the two qualities. Impure music creates a spirit of impurity. Music emanates from the same source as prophecy. If the chazzan (cantor) is a rasha (wicked) the tefilos (prayers) will be corrupted. Torah sheb’al peh (the oral Torah) counteracts the effect of impure music.
