In this double portion we have a short discussion around clean and unclean and the importance of our speech. These few chapters of Leviticus can be challenging to read and understand in a modern context, but let’s remember our frame of reference is keeping sacred space holy and this required the following of Yahweh’s instructions. When His people became ceremonially unclean or unable to be in sacred space, He provided a means for cleansing and restoration through the priesthood. In terms of our speech, the teaching of lashon hara or evil speech is traditionally connected to the ancient skin disease of leprosy discussed in the Torah portion Metzora. We share some New Testament scripture to confirm the importance of this teaching and how it can be walked out in faith today.
