Parashiot
Tazria (When a woman conceives) and Metzorah (Leper)
Skin
diseases for everybody!!!
These
sections deal mainly with sacrifices and skin diseases.
The
Torah (in the first parasha) starts describing the diseases that can affect a
person (Adam) and ends with the diseases that can affect clothing (Begued).
This
speaks about the downward spiral a person can experience.
Two
interpretations.
At
the beginning, a person is considered a person... at the end, a person is
considered only what he or she wears.
Or
all the way around... The decline occurs on those who judge others; one thing
is to judge by who the person is and something completely different (and lower)
is to judge someone by what he/she wears.
