SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- One of Rashis 5 main goals was the resolution of contradiction We call this the RASHI RULE OF CONTRADICTION. Rashi had a variety of methods to resolve contradiction. Very often the CONTRADICTION could be resolved by interpreting the contradictory verses BROADLY thereby avoiding the contradiction. EXAMPLE Lv07-19c vs Dt12-27 --------------------------- We have two verses discussing which non priests eat from PEACE OFFERINGs - Dt12-27 states ------------------------------------------------- [After] The blood of your sacrifice is spilled on the altar then YOU may eat the meat ------------------------------------------------- - Lv07-19c states -------------------------------------------------- And the meat of the peace offering: All pure people may eat of the meat -------------------------------------------------- This creates a contradiction since - Dt01-27 implies that only the OWNER may eat it(YOU eat it) - Lv07-19c implies that ANY PURE PERSON can eat it. We avoid this contradiction by interpreting Dt12-27 BROADLY -------------------------------------------------------- [After] The blood of your sacrifice is spilled on the altar then YOU AND ANY OF YOUR FRIENDS may eat the meat ------------------------------------------------- EXAMPLE - Lv06-22a vs Lv06-19 ----------------------------- In speaking about who may eat of the sin offering - Lv06-19 states ---------------------------------------- The PRIEST offering the sin offering will eat it ---------------------------------------- - Lv06-22a states ---------------------------------------- All MALE PRIESTS may eat it ---------------------------------------- These verses appear contradictory. To avoid this contradiction we interpret Lv06-19 BROADLY --------------------------------------------- The PRIEST WHO COULD OFFER the sin offering can eat it --------------------------------------------- In other words we interpret the phrase - THE OFFERING PRIEST WILL EAT IT to be a paradigmatic example---any priest who is pure enough to offer it may eat it. This interpretation of OFFERING PRIEST as PRIEST WHO COULD POTENTITALLY OFFER is also echoed in Rashi on Lv07-07b.

*1 Hence the fire did not burn their clothes The idea that the FIRES mentioned in Dt05 or Ex20 was the FIRE OF PROPHECY vs REAL FIRE is supported by many verses and themes (Dt05-21). There are other Biblical supports for this idea but this will suffice for now.*10 *2 Also echoed in Rashi Lv07-07b (OFFERING PRIEST means PRIESTS WHO COULD OFFER) | |||
|
|
|||
*10 It does not detract from the greatness of the miracle of revelation that the FIRE means FIRE OF PROPHECY. For Judaism does not view Gods greatness in His ability to make a mountain smoke with Fire. Rather Judaism views Gods greatness in His ability to make people burn with Spiritual Prophecy | |||
