This parsha, Metzora, deals with the treatment of lepers, including how they were to be welcomed back into the community after they were healed.
This parsha and the previous one, Tazria, also deal with ritual impurities, including impurities of a home. It is also about house cleaning.
It also deals with lashon hara, the evil of gossip, speaking slanderously or spreading negative things about someone, even when true.
