    Go to a Kohen and let him determine your status. Coming to the coffee room shan’t solve your status.

    The Rabbi said in his speech yesterday, that Tzora’as can only occur in Israel, and you MameshhTov98 mentioned that yesterday was “sazria-Metrorah”, so by definition you MameshhTov98 must have been in the Disapora where Tzora’as cannot transpire, because if you had been in Israel, you would have been saying that yesterday was “Acharei-Mos-Kedoshim”.

    I have very many small bumps covering my upper arms with hair sticking out of them. I think they are called goosebumps.

    That may have been because B’nei Yisroel did not enter Eretz Yisroel yet.

    The Rambam writes that it only occurs in Eretz Yisroel. Not sure about Miriam.

    Where does the Rambam say that it only occurs in Israel? In Hilchos Tumas Tzara’as 11:6 he writes:

    ???? ????? ?? ????? ???? ?????? ???? ???? ???? ???? ???? ????

    The Sefer Hachinuch in Mitzva 169 writes:

    ??????? ???? ???? ?????? ?????? ??? ??? ????? ????? ?????? ????? ???? ?? ???? ????? ????”? ?????? ????? ??? ?? ?? ??? ???? ????? ???? ????? ??????? ??? ????? ????? ???? ????? ???? ?????? ?????? ???? ????

    See also Berachos 5b:

    ?”? ????? ????? ????? ???? ?????? ?? ???? ?????? ?? ?????? ?? ?? ??? ?? ??? ?????? ????? ????? ???? ???? ??? ???? ???? ???? ???? ??? ?????? ?? ???? ?? ??? ???”? ?? ?? ??? ??? ??? ???? ???? ?? ????? ?? ???????

    ??”? ??:

    The Maharsha there asks:

    ???”? ?? ?? ?? ??? ???’. ????”? ?????’ ??? ?????? ????? ????? ???? ???? ???? ??? ??”? ??????? ??? ????? ??? ?????? ??? ??? ?????? ????”? ??? ?????? ??? ???? ??? ?? ????? ?? ??????

    He therefore gives a different pshat in the Gemara. It should be noted though, that all these discussions are about whether the dinim are in effect, not whether it is possible to get tzara’as.

    The question of why bizman hazeh we aren’t noheg the dinim has vexed several of the acharonim. R’ Yaakov Emden discusses it at length in She’ailas Yaavetz Siman 136, 137, and 138: http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=1408&pgnum=131

    The Tiferes Yisrael in his pesicha to Seder Kadshim discusses it and suggests that it’s because we only have ???? ???? nowadays:

    http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=37947&st=&pgnum=36 (footnote ?)

    R’ Menachem Kasher discusses it and suggests that one can only identify tzara’as if he had direct shimush from someone who showed him what it looks like:

    Tzara’as Batim only applies in Eretz Yisrael. Nothing to do with regular Tzara’as.

    I always found it Pashut that it would take an incredible Middas Achzarius to declare someone a Metzorah Bizman HaZeh.
