SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- A powerful but simple Rashi method is the CITATION or CROSS- REFERENCING of an OTHER VERSE for the purpose of adding FURTHER DETAILS to a verse we are studying. We call this the Rashi METHOD of OTHER VERSES and the Rashi submethod of FURTHER DETAILS EXAMPLE Nu14-25a ---------------- Nu14-25 states -------------------------------- The Amalykites are in the valley [therefore] journey away from here tomorrow -------------------------------- Rashi explains the causal connection between the presence of the Amalykites and the need to journey by citing Nu14-42:45 ------------------------------------- Moses told the people do not go up to conquer Israel since God is angry with you...don't violate God's will ---you will not be successful...if you go up the Amalykite will defeat you... the nation did not listen...they went up and the Amalykite in the mountain came down and defeated them -------------------------------------- Thus this OTHER VERSE sheds light on why they had to JOURNEY---they would be defeated if they stayed.

*1 Unlike other cases of ritual impurity the Lepor is - ostracized from all his friends - must declare himself impure and separate himself Hence he is like someone dead (that is like a dead body he is REPULSIVE)*10 --------------------- LONGER FOOTNOTES --------------------- *10 Rashi gives an alternate argument ----------------------------------------------------- Both the LEPOR and DEAD transmit a status of ritual impurity to a person who merely walks into the same room with them ----------------------------------------------------- However we would summarize this Rashi argument as follows --------------------------------------------------------- Both the LEPOR and DEAD are considered REPULSIVE. Hence - merely being in the same room with them confers impurity - People AVOID both the LEPOR and DEAD BODY --------------------------------------------------------- Such an approach to Rashi is deeper and more satisfying and sheds light on the analogy. |
