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 Nu20-16b ---------------- Nu20-16b states -------------------------------- God sent an ANGEL to redeem us and save us from Egypt -------------------------------- The reference to ANGEL REDEEMER is clarified by an OTHER VERSE Ex23-20 ------------------------------------------ Behold: I (God) send an angel before you to watch you on your journey and to bring you to the promised land ------------------------------------------ Thus the ANGEL REDEEMER is Moses who took us out of Egypt, led us thru the wilderness and brought us to the promised land. EXAMPLE Nu21-24a ---------------- Nu21-24 states ------------------------------------- The city BRAZEN is the border of AMON ------------------------------------- Rashi explains the name BRAZEN by citing an OTHER VERSE Dt02-19 ------------------------------------------- God tells Moses: Don't get near Amon because if there is a war I will not let you keep their territory since I have given it to the children of Lot as an inheritance ------------------------------------------- Hence the name BRAZEN refers to the fact that the city and national land it borders is protected by a PROPHETIC DECREE.

*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. |
