VERY BRIEF SUMMARY
------------------
One of Rashis 6 main goals is to give the meaning of words the
same way a dictionary does. In explaining words Rashi may
-- explain the meaning of an unknown word
-- explain the fine nuances of a known word
(For example Rashi may explain the nuances of synonyms)
-- explain the meaning of a phrase of words
-- Show a unifying theme to disparate meanings of one root
Rashi explains the word SHAAR which technically means GATE.
SHAAR-GATE can also refer to a whole CITY and especially to the
Judicial Bench (COURTHOUSE) of the city.
