*1 So the famous phrase ------------------------------------------ A LAND flowing with milk and sweet juices ------------------------------------------ really means ------------------------------------------ A LAND WHOSE INHABITANTS (Goats for milk and Fruit trees for sweet juices) flows with milk and honey ------------------------------------------ *2 Rashi brings support for his contention that LAMB can SYNECDOCHICALLY mean any docile young creature (the same way BREAD means FOOD etc) See Dt14-04 -- A GOAT-LAMB *3 See LIST817b*10 for examples. For the while we point out that because of the snakes characteristic motion (JUMPING out at a prey),the phrase TO SNAKE came to mean TO JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS (Just as in the English Metaphor). Hence the Rabbis interpret the prohibition of SNAKING as a prohibition of JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS (eg a Snake crossed my path hence I will have bad luck) *4 For other Rashis dealing with the HONEY-SWEET equation see Lv02-11a Ex34-26a Ex16-31b Ex13-05c Note how Rashi differs in his explanations. Rashi states both - HONEY refers to ANY SWEET FRUIT - HONEY refers to FRUIT JUICE OF the TAMAR fruit *5 Rashi on this verse explicitly states ----------------------------------- The Bible uses the tecnique of EXAGGERATION/HYPERBOLE ----------------------------------- | ||||
