Tazria-Metzorah
If a woman gives birth to a baby boy she becomes Tameh for 7 days. On the 8th day the Baby gets a bris Milah. She is not allowed to touch anything rendered “Kadosh” or enter the Bais Hamikdash for 33 days.
When she gives birth to a baby girl, she becomes Tameh for 14 days and cannot touch anything rendered Kadosh or enter the Bais Hamikdash for 66 days.
When the Tameh days are complete she purifies herself and brings a Karban.
The pesukim delve into the details of a person that suspects he has tzaraas on his skin and goes to a kohen. The Kohen looks for white or pink skin, depth, white hairs and other details to determine if the person is Tameh or not. If the Kohen is not sure, then the person has to quarantine outside the camp for 7 days and come back to the Kohen to determine if he has Tzaraas.
The Tzaraas can be white or reddish white on the skin.
White spots are not Tzaraas.
Tzaraas on clothing is deep green or deep red. The Kohen quarantines the garment for 7 days and washes it. If it remains with Tzaraas it gets burned. If it goes away it should be washed again and becomes Tahor.
When a person is deemed ready to be purified from Tzaraas he takes 2 live Tahor birds, Mayim Chayim (spring water) in an earthen vessel, cedar wood, a scarlet colored string, and a hyssop branch. 1 bird is slaughtered and the other bird and items are dipped in the blood and sprinkled on the Metzora 7 times. He washes his clothes, shaves off all hair and facial hair and immerses in a Mikvah. He may enter the camp but has to remain outside of his tent for 7 days. Then he must bring a Karban. The Kohen takes some of the blood of the Karban (as well as some oil) and puts it on the man’s ear, thumb and big toe. He puts remaining oil on the man’s head.
Tzaraas can also be on a house, dark green or dark red. If a person suspects Tzaraas on his house he needs to take everything out of the house. The Kohen quarantines it for 7 days. If the Tzaraas doesn’t go away they take away the stones of the house with the Tzaraas on them to a place for Tameh things and replace them with new stones. If the Tzaraas comes back then the house needs to be demolished. If the Tzaraas went away then the house can be purified.
There are other forms of Tumah that a man and women can get from bodily discharges. Anything or anyone that he or she touches becomes Tameh and the one that is Tameh requires a mikvah to purify themselves.

THE PARSHA PARTY ANSWER LIST!
Cry Baby Candies / Pacifier candy / Mazel tov Candy / It’s a Boy and It’s a Girl treats / Sippies / Baby Bites – Laws of when a woman has a baby girl or boy and a boy gets a bris milah
Lip Candies – Speaking Lashon Hara brings Tzaraas which is what much of the Parshios talk about
Mike and Ikes / Wowzers – Talking about People brings Tzaraas (“Did you hear what Mike did?”, “Ike is such a nasty guy”, “Wow, she is such a snob”,)
FruZips – When you feel like speaking Lashon Hara Zip your mouth – Lashon Hara brings Tzaraas
Pez Emoji candy – Facial expressions as well as sending Emojis about people can be Lashon Hara too! Keep far away from any that can bring Tzaraas
Air heads / Jolly Ranchers – People that don’t think before they speak or are being too Jolly often speak Lashon Hara – Tzaraas Alert!
Marshmallows, / Coconut candies, cookies, bars, drinks etc / White Candies / Pink and White tic tac / Vanilla ice cream – Tzaraas white or pink patches on skin
Popp Candy – The Tzaraas Pops onto his skin / clothing/ house
Chocolate Spread – The kohen checks if the Tzaraas Spread after quarantine
Go Go candies or Applesauce / Fruit by the foot / Zazoom Candy – If the person gets Tzaraas he’s ordered to leave and go far outside the cam
Fidget Spinner Candies – The Metzora must remain quarantined until the Tzaraas heals
Red Soursticks / Pull and Peel / Red Laffy Taffy ropes/ Mayim Chayim Seltzer / Gushers / Yummy Earth Lollies / Sprinkle cookies – When the Metzorah heals, in order to purify himself he must take 2 live birds, a red string, a cedar branch and hyssop branch. He shechts one bird over an Earthen vessel over Mayim Chaim – spring water and dips the other bird and items into the blood and sprinkles 7x onto the Metzorah. Then he sends away the live bird.
Blue Powerade, Sour belts, Candies / Aqua Chews – After the Metzorah is sprinkled from the bird, he must immerse in a mikvah.
Wavy Chips – The Metzorah brings a Karban and the Kohen waves it around

Fruit Rollups / fruit leathers – Tzaraas can come on clothing including leather clothes
Brick Candy – Tzaraas can come on a house
