Parshas Tazria-Metzora
"Hey !! Why did the gym teacher compliment him on his 20 push-ups and not me??" "Because everyday he's done one more than the day before, and you've done 20 every day for two weeks." ["Leprosy" mentioned in this week's Parsha is NOT the disease of leprosy. There were some spots on a person's house, clothing, or self that was a punishment for certain sins, and the "leper", was forced to stay out of the dwelling areas, until it went away.] If a person had questionable signs of leprosy, a Kohaine (Priest) would re-check him a week later.If he still looked the same, the Kohaine would come back a week later and re-check him (again). If the spots hadn't lessened or gotten worse, the Kohaine would declare him a "definite leper", whose laws were more severe than a "possible leper" If he still had questionable signs why is he considered a "definite leper"? Rav Yerachmiel Chussid, the famous Rebbe in the Mirrer Yeshiva, said, that if, after two weeks, he still hadn't repented enough to be healed, he is a real "definite leper" !! Life is like an escalator :If you're not going up-you're going down !! Have a great Shabbos !! Rabbi Chaim Flom |
