Our Parshas discuss some of the complex laws pertaining to Tzara’as, a skin discoloration which renders a person ritually impure.

Someone who has the symptoms of Tzara’as must be seen by a Cohen, and judging by the various signs the Cohen pronounces it pure or impure.

A person who is afflicted with Tzara’as must dwell alone outside of the city until it is healed. Once the prescribed time has passed, they must undergo a rigorous process of purification to return to their city and community.

We find out why the Torah seemingly adds extra words in the Pasuk.

We learn why only a Cohen is allowed to pronounce a rash Tzara'as.
