The Tohoros covers a wide range of topics, from the laws of ritual purity and impurity to rules governing the niddah (menstrual) period, interpersonal relations between husband and wife, physical contact between men and women that is forbidden by Torah law, the laws of Taharat HaMishpacha (family purity), and more. The tractates included in this order are Beitzah (Egg), Chullin (Animals slaughtered for food), Kelim (Utensils), Ohalot (Tents/tabernacles), Nega'im  (Skin Diseases & Leprosy), Parah  (Cows used in Temple Services), Tahorot  (Purities - overview of laws of purity), Mikvaot (Ritual Baths), Niddah  (Menstruation & marital relations during this period), Makhshirin  (Wines & Foods susceptible to ritual impurity), Zabim  (Issues related to leprosy and skin diseases) and Tevul Yom (Immersion for the purification of a person - not found in Mishnah). Each tractate deals with different topics, but all relate to the overarching theme of ritual purity. The Tohoros is an integral part of Jewish law, as it discusses issues such as incestuous relationships and proper family hygiene that help preserve the sanctity of marriage and protect the physical health of individuals. It is a vital part of the Talmud and integral to Jewish life and practice. 


The Tohoros is a complex set of laws requiring in-depth study, but it is necessary to maintain the spiritual health of individuals, families, and communities. The topics discussed within this order are essential for understanding and implementing proper family purity practices in Jewish homes today. With its comprehensive coverage of critical religious issues related to cleanliness and purity, the Tohorot is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in learning more about these aspects of Judaism.
