The Leper Messiah: God’s Touch for the Untouchable
A message from this week’s Torah portion, Tazria–Metzora, titled “The Leper Messiah: God’s Touch for the Untouchable.” This parashah speaks to themes of impurity, isolation, and exclusion—but in Yeshua, the Leper Messiah, we see the fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy: One who enters our suffering, touches the unclean, and restores the outcast. A key verse is, “Moved with compassion, Yeshua stretched out His hand and touched him. He said, “I am willing. Be cleansed.”” (Mark 1:41, TLV)
