RASHIS COVERED: Dt12-06a Rashi describes 4 sacrifice vehicles Dt12-06b Dt12-06c Dt12-06d VERY BRIEF SUMMARY ------------------ In Dt12-06 God requests that the Jews bring to Gods temple - the slaughterings [peace offerings] - the tithes [Jews eat the 2nd tithe in Jerusalem] - the terumah [The offering of the 1st fruit] - the 1st born [of Kosher animals is given to the priest] Rashi cross references each of these items to another verse which clarifies its meaning as shown in brackets above. The cross references are in the table below.This Rashi is surprisingly modern since Rashi identifies sacrifices not with slaughter but with a variety of vehicles of getting close to God --------------------------------------- TODAYS RASHI RULE: OTHER VERSES TODAYS RASHI SUBRULE: FURTHER DETAILS --------------------------------------- BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE RULE and SUBRULE ----------------------------------------- The rule of OTHER VERSES simply means that Rashi is explaining one verse by citing an OTHER VERSE One way of doing this is to cross reference a verse that speaks about the SAME topic but gives FURTHER details. STANDARD EXAMPLE ---------------- The following example comes from the Passover Hagaddah Dt26-05 states that ------------------------------- With only a FEW PEOPLE did the Jews go down to Egypt ------------------------------- FURTHER DETAILS on the meaning of the Biblical phrase FEW PEOPLE is provided in Gn46. EXERCISE: --------- Before reading the Rashi try reading Gn46 yourself and see if you can discover the further details. RASHIS SOLUTION --------------- Rashi cites Gn46-27 ----------------------------- The total number of people who came with Jacob to Egypt is 70 ----------------------------- Thus the Rashi method of OTHER VERSES in this case has explained to us that the FEW PEOPLE that went down to Egypt refers to SEVENTY people STANDARD REFERENCES FOR THIS RULE --------------------------------- http://www.Rashiyomi.com/other-20.htm TODAYS LIST: ------------ The cross references for Dt12-06. | |||

*1 Technically, the Hebrew Zayin-Beth-Cheth could refer to ANY slaughtering. But in Dt12-27 ZVC seems to specifically refer to the peace offering -You will make OLAH OFFERINGS: Flesh AND Blood on altar -BUT for PEACE(Z-V-C)OFFERINGS: Flesh eaten;blood-altar The root Z-V-C seems to refer to any animal (profane or sacrificial) that is SLAUGHTERED for eating(And the peace offering is a unique sacrifice since it is partially eaten by the owners) | |||
