Tazria
The expression “He-nay” is invariably used,
In describing the Kohen’s inspection,
Sometimes this word translates as “Behold!”
As if shocking to find an infection.
Perhaps it was rare to behold such a p’gam,
As s’eis or baheres or sapachas,
And Aaron was hoping for ways to avoid,
Declaring that one had tzara’as.
It meant the metzora must be kept apart,
From the Mishkan and all its kedushah,
His family and tribe,
To stay outside the camp,
And not least, to suffer the bushah.
