SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- All languages have a variety of methods to indicate EMPHASIS and SIMILARLITY. Modern typesetting methods use BOLD and ITALICS to indicate EMPHASIS. Modern typesetting methods use BULLETS to indicate SIMILARITY. The Bible did not have BOLD and ITALICS. Rather the Bible used REPETITION to indicate emphasis. This emphasis could in turn either indicate BROADENING or RESTRICTION of meaning. EXAMPLE Lv13-35a ---------------- The Biblical text at Lv13-35a states --------------------------------------------- but if the leprosy SPREADS SPREADS after it becomes PURE --------------------------------------------- Rashi comments ------------------------------------------------- Notice the repeated phrase: - SPREAD SPREAD The repetition creates emphasis. ---------------------------------- - If the leprosy spreads - - whether after it becomes pure - - or while it is still impure ---------------------------------- LIST150a below gives other examples where REPETITION creates broad emphasis. EXAMPLE Lv13-44a ---------------- The Biblical text of Lv13-32:45 is as follows ---------------------------------------------------- If on his baldness there is pinkish affiction then leprosy is sprouting in his baldness; the priest reviews and confirms the pinkish affliction in his baldness just like skin leprosy...[then] this person is leprous and is ritually impure; the priest shall DECLARE DECLARE him impure and the lepor with the affliction: his garments shall be rent and his head left wild.... ----------------------------------------------------- Rashi comments on the repeated words DECLARE DECLARE ----------------------------------------------------- The words DECLARE DECLARE encourage a BROAD interpretation of this chapter: The requirements of declaration, garment renting and head left wild apply not only to the subject of the chapter---a bald person with leprosy---but apply to ANY lepor ----------------------------------------------------- LIST150a presents verses where Repetition motivates a broad interpretation of words. | ||
