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 viewing the
contradictory properties as applying to TWO CASES. We call
this the Rashi SUBRULE of TWO CASES.

EXAMPLE Nu05-08d
----------------
Compare the contradiction in the following verse:
-------------------------------------------------
If the stolen-from person has no heir then
the returned guilt [i.e. theft and fine] belongs
- to GOD
- to the PRIEST
-------------------------------------------------

Rashi elegantly resolves the contradiction by
seeing GOD and PRIEST as two aspects of one entity!
----------------------------------------------
The person has no heir so the theft must be
returned TO GOD. However GOD DELEGATES the
PRIESTS to receive it on his behalf
-----------------------------------------------

contradictions are resolved by 2 cases.
