SUCCINCT SUMMARY: ----------------- One of Rashis 10 major goals is to illustrate complex geometric designs or algebraic complications. This is called the Rashi method of SPREADSHEETS, since SPREADSHEETS are one method of clarifying a complex relationship. The SPREADSHEET method can refer to any illustration of a verse that clarifies it. EXAMPLE Nu13-22b ---------------- Nu13-22 states ------------------------------ They journeyed to CHEVRON which was built SEVEN years before Tzoan of Egypt ------------------------------ Rashi interprets BUILT SEVEN YEARS BEFORE to indicate that CHEVRON is more important than Tzoan. Rashi then uses this verse to illustrate a hierarchy of land importance. The basic point of the hierarchy is as follows ---------------------------------------------- 1) ISRAEL is BETTER than CHEVRON since chevron is used for burial and burial plots use land of inferior quality (See Gn23-19:20 proving Chevron is used for burial) 2) CHEVRON is BETTER than TZOAN since CHEVRON was built before Tzoan as indicated in Nu13-22 3) TZOAN is the BEST of EGYPT since Tzoan is the Capital of Egypt as indicated in Is30-05 and the Capital is typically the land of superior quality 4) EGYPT is BETTER than the rest of the WORLD since Egypt is compared (Gn13-10) to be the GARDEN of GOD Hence Rashi infers the following hierarchy - Israel - Chevron - Tzoan - Egypt - World Israel is the best of all lands. LIST690k below summarizes this spreadsheet pattern. LIST690a presents other Rashis where the SPREADSHEET rule is used. | ||

| Israel | Chevron | Chevron=burial place | burial=inferior land | Gn23-19:20 | |
| Chevron | Tzoan | Chevron built first | 1st built=best*1 | Nu13-22b | |
| Tzoan | Egypt | Tzoan=Egypt capital; | Capital=best | Is30-05 | |
| Egypt | Land | Egypt=GARDEN OF GOD | GARDEN=best land | Gn13-20 | |

*1 Actually Rashi interprets the whole verse -------------------------------------------- Chevron was built 7 years before Tzoan -------------------------------------------- to mean that ------------------------------------------- Chevron was 7 times better than Tzoan ------------------------------------------- But this is not necessary. EVEN if we interpret the verse literally the fact that Chevron was built first implies that it is of superior quality. | |||||
