Nonetheless, that is not the way things are ordered in the parshiyot (sections), for the first parsha discusses “‫ — נֶ גַע צָ רַ עַ ת ּכִ י תִ הְ יֶה ּבְ ָאדָ ם‬an affliction of tzoraat if it should be in a person” (13:9), after that comes “‫ — וְ הַ ּבֶ גֶד ּכִ י יִ הְ יֶה בו ֹ נֶ גַע צָ רָ עַ ת‬If a garment should have an affliction of tzoraat” (pasuk 47), and the final parsha is “‫וְ נָתַ ּתִ י נֶ גַע‬ 1 See Parshat Noach. Hashem has more consideration for the honor of His creations than He does for the honor of the Mizbeach!6 Yibum and Chalitzah Perhaps, based on this principle of “Darchei Noam,” we may suggest an explanation concerning a shift in phraseology within the parsha of Yibum. For example, the Sefer HaChinuch (mitzvah 376) explains the reason for the mitzvah of a Kohen to become tamei for a member of his immediate family: A regular Kohen, even though he is sanctified, becomes tamei for them [the seven close family members]. Rabbi Immanuel Bernstein 2023 / 5783 Pshuto PSHUTOShel Mikra SHEL MIKRA From the Teachings of Rav Yehuda Copperman zt”l Parshat Tazria D’rachehah Darchei Noam: Part Two In an earlier chapter,1 we discussed the principle regarding Torah formulated by Shomo Hamelech (Mishlei 3:17), that “‫ — ּדְ רָ כֶ יהָ דַ רְ כֵ י נ ֹעַ ם‬Its ways are ways of pleasantness.” This principle finds expression in every area of learning and understanding Torah. ‫ — צָ רַ עַ ת ּבְ בֵ ית אֶ רֶ ץ אֲ חֻ ּזַתְ כֶ ם‬And I will place a tzoraat affliction upon a house in the Land of your possession” (14:34)!2 The reason why the Torah chose this way, namely, to mention first tzoraat of the body, then of clothing and finally of houses, is because “Derachehah Darchei Noam,” all the Torah’s ways are ways of pleasantness. In the event of chalitzah, the Torah requires the woman to say about her deceased husband’s brother “‫ — ֹלא ָאבָ ה יַּבְ מִ י‬He does not wish to perform Yibum with me” (Devarim 25:7), whereas in the very next pasuk the brother is required to say “‫ — ֹלא חָ פַ צְ ּתִ י לְ קַ חְ ּתָ ּה‬I do not wish to marry her” (ibid., pasuk 8). We would like to suggest that with these shifts in nuance the Torah is demonstrating specia
