The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Dovid Orlofsky’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

hi this is dski and welcome to the paraa in five where in five minutes we try to give you a thought about the paraa par tazri is usually connected tazria and this year of course tazria is separate and as Rashi says at the beginning tazs is the source of human Tuma in Shi we talked about the Tuma of sherids of NAA of all kinds of other things and now we're talking about the Tuma of people not dead animal carcuses not dead reptiles people and it starts off listing between this week and next week all of the different human tumas um and it's very interesting all Tuma has its source in death that's where Tuma comes from Tuma comes from Death to came in ganen when uh they um ate from the AAS and brought death to the world until then there was no tuming there was no tum in the world nothing died nothing decayed there was uh everything was imperfection so um uh T always has its source in death which is very strange when it come to par tazria everybody asked the question because as it's listing the Tas the first T it brings is child birth Yol this when a woman gives birth so uh she becomes tummy um 40 days 80 Days yeah depends if it's a boy or a girl and um 40 Days for a boy 80 days for a girl but she's given birth why should uh person become T who gave life and I suspect this is the reason
