Can moral flaws truly manifest physically? Aesthetics and ethics mix in this week's reading, where immoral behavior is seen by our rabbis as contagious. While the general public is encouraged to stay away from the leper, his outcry of "impure! impure!" can also be read as a call for help, empathy, and prayer.

Description: Why bring a sin offering after giving birth? The Gemara suggests that is all about forgetting. Parashat HaChodesh, on the other hand, is all about remembering. Yet these parshiyot usually fall together in leap years. Perhaps this points to the way Jewish tradition constructs healthy narratives. *This podcast was originally published on April 1, 2019.

Legal ramifications aside, the prohibition against fire cautions us about the tendency of our hottest emotion - anger - to burn through our most precious relationships. How do the seemingly repetitive verses and the joint project of building of the Mishkan / tabernacle provide a structure and a framework for anticipating without panic, and repairing the inevitable ruptures in our lives, our families, and our communities? 2022-02-2121 minPardes from JerusalemPardes from JerusalemParashat Ki Tisa 5782: The Inherent Value of the IndividualParashat Ki Tisa 5782: The Inherent Value of the Individual Description: Cultivating a Healthy Self-Esteem through the Parsha in the midst of the growing crisis of loneliness, lack of self-worth and alienation from a sense of one's own being.
