Tzav〚 Priestly Perquisites 〛Torah Pearls

This week on Torah Pearls, Ross, Jono, and Ezra (our resident AI textpert) wade deeper into the priestly waters of Leviticus. We examine the curious repetition of the priestly ordination—found in Exodus 28–29, 40, and Leviticus 8—and ask: are these accounts out of order, or does the rabbinic claim that “there’s no early or late in the Torah” explain it?

We explore priestly privileges (or "perquisites"), ponder the contagious nature of holiness and impurity, and unpack the word translated as “abomination” in Leviticus 7. What does it really mean—and how does it connect to Ezekiel’s infamous bread recipe?

Join us as we trace divine tax systems, discuss whether Ezra has a soul, and question the divine grammar behind sacred offerings—all while keeping it thought-provoking and just a little edgy.
