7th Grade Chumash Update

We have been working on Perek 9 in Sefer Bamidbar. We read how the Torah describes that Bney Yisroel in the second year since Yetziat Mitzrayim kept Pesach.

The Torah then tells about how there were a group of people who approached Moshe because they were 'Tamei' which indicates a level of Spiritual Impurity, therefore disqualifying them from partaking in the Pesach offering.

We discussed the concepts of Tumah and Tahara, and we leave off discussing whether the class thought that these people were good/bad/ordinary people for their question.
