Furthermore, the introduction of sacrifices ...

A spiritual sickness which had physical symptoms. If a person would get a certain type of blemish, they would be taken to the priest for a diagnosis. The verse (13:2) makes a point of saying that they were taken, and the Ibn Ezra. Friday, April 20, 2012. Weekly Torah Portion: Shemini. Sometimes when we are g...
