Description

Tzara'at is one of the more enigmatic afflictions mentioned in Tanakh. Though it is discussed at length in Parshiyot Tazria and Metzora, the nature of the condition is unclear. Is it a natural disease that anyone can contract, or is it a Divinely sent, supernatural phenomenon? How do tzara'at of the house, clothing, and body relate to each other? Finally, what about the condition causes its accompanying impurity? This Torahcast, brought to you by ALHATORAH.ORG, featuring Neima Novetsky, explores these questions and more. For primary sources and analysis, see https://alhatorah.org/Tzara'at.
