"Ordonne aux enfants d’Israël de renvoyer du camp tout individu lépreux, ou atteint de flux, ou souillé par un cadavre.
Sha'arei Orah
Now, everything we have said to this point, is about the [inner] line and inside of the walls of the Supernal Temple. However, about what is on the outside of the walls, to the left there indeed are evil groups, who are only below and not Above. The head of all these quarrelsome and destructive groups of evil, is Samael. They are not members of the King’s court, but are outside the three partitions, and outside the walls surrounding the holy camp. About this the verse states,411Numbers 5:2 “[They shall expel from the camp] everyone with the Tzara’at-affliction, everyone who has had a Zav-emission, and everyone contaminated by a human corpse.” Now, this verse mentions three groups, however they are not the subject of our explanation here. The next verse continues,412Numbers 5:3 “They shall not contaminate their camps, within which I dwell.” These are the “Young lions-Kefirim-כפירים [who] roar for prey.”413Psalms 104:21; Also see Midrash Tehillim 104:12 – “The ‘young lions-Kefirim-כפירים’ refers to the nations of the world who ‘deny-Kofrim-כופרים’ faith in the Holy One, blessed is He, and want to devour the Jewish people.” Who is the verse referring to when it says, “They shall not contaminate?” It certainly refers to those outside the line, who wait and hope for mankind to stumble into sin and impurity, so that they can then accuse them Above, so that the outcome of the judgment will be to give them over into the hands of those accusers.
