Well, for the last two episodes, we've been reading about this concept of ritual purity.

0:25.5

What does that mean?

0:26.4

First, we discussed the ritual purity that came from eating or touching animals.

0:31.5

And then we talked about the ritual purity for childbirth, mold, a whole lot of skin diseases.
