Lashon Nekiah - Clean Language: Difference between revisions

Line 16:

In the Zohar, a process is described that is created from the use of unclean language: when a person utters a derogatory word about another person, the sound of the derogatory word rises upward and destructive angels connect to the sound, the sound awakens the great abyss, and the destructive angels harm the person.

Regarding Parshat Metzora, there are several references from the Rebbe: The Rebbe points out that in various books it is called "Parshat Tahara" (the portion of purity), and the Rebbe also instructed the Committee for Writing a Torah Scroll for the Children of Israel to write in the certificate for children who merited a letter in this parsha 'Parshat HaTahara.' The Rebbe Rayatz would avoid mentioning the name of the parsha, but at most wrote or said the day of the month and so forth. Nevertheless, the Rebbe noted in later years that in recent generations, it is the Jewish custom to call it by this name and explained the reason: since the revelation of 'transforming darkness into light' is already close, to make from 'Metzora' - Torah, "the Torah of the Metzora." Later he added that this name hints that we already feel close to the coming of Moshiach Tzidkeinu, who is called by this name.
