How Spiritual Impurity is Similar to Expulsion from the Garden of Eden

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Shares about this week’s upcoming double parasha (Tazria-Metzora) and how many of the principles of tumah (spiritual impurity) are based all the back to the Garden of Eden.

Personal Thoughts – The beginning of the journey of (Wo)Man’s journey began in the Garden of Eden and the foundations set forth then still affect us today. This is a great lesson to learn that it’s not random.
