Stones Of The Leprous House

Must be sent out of town

אל מקום טמא

The Rambam ignores the prescribed location

And everyone agrees

There is no specific מקום טמא

In fact, מקום can’t become טמא

Not in Israel

The Maharal explains

The words of Rashi (14:40):

The exported stones

Create a space which contaminates

Not as an ohel

Rather as a מקום

A new kind of טומאה

Invented by Rashi

Invisible to the Rambam

ר״ת אל מקום טמא = טמא

Shabbos Shalom
