The Pattern

What is the pattern of the 7 Mitzvot in this weeks Parsha ?

- A woman has a child - but there is some Tumah - why ?
She just did one of the greatest Mitzvos in the world ?

The answer is she did bring a great Neshomo into the world , but there is also a physical body which presents challenges that need to be overcome.

That is why there is some Tumah & that is why she needs to bring offerings to help focus & overcome the challenges.
Then the Parsha brings in Metzora to show how difficult the challenges may be.

Mitzva for Today

Just as there are foods that are always forbidden to us , so too there are times when we are not suitable to eat certain foods.

3 Reasons

Why a woman gets some time off after having a child :

- to rest up & get her strength back ,
- to protect against her becoming arrogant after participating in one of the greatest miracles of bringing life into the world.
- to give some space to each spouse so that their love grows in a healthy way when they will resume relations. See Sefer Hachinuch
