Among the many mysteries of Tanakh, צרעת ranks high on the list. What is this malady? Why does a person get afflicted? Is it a natural disease that anyone can contract, or is it a Divinely sent, supernatural phenomenon, meant as punishment for sin? השוו את עמדות חז"ל1 ורלב"ג בנושא צרעת, and debate each position at your Shabbat Table.
