RASHI COVERED: Dt26-15b Rashi cross references promise of Israel

VERY BRIEF SUMMARY
------------------
Rashi, quite simply uses the method of CROSS REFERENCING. There
are many verses where God promises to the patriarchs to give
them and their children a land flowing with milk and fruit juices
Consequently Rashi makes two comments on Dt26-15 which states
AS YOU SWORE TO OUR FORFATHERS--A LAND OF MILK AND FRUIT JUICES
--1st Rashi cross references those verses where God so swore
--2nd Rashi fills in the missing phrase (in brackets below)
AS YOU SWORE TO OUR FOREFATHERS [to give to us] A LAND FLOWING
WITH MILK AND FRUIT JUICES

BRIEF EXPLANATION OF RULES
--------------------------
OTHER VERSES
------------
Rashi can sometimes simply justify a cross reference by a
citation. Thus if a verse says AS GOD PROMISED, Rashi might
cite verses where this occurs.

GRAMMAR
-------
Very often sentences sound better if missing words are filled
in. Rashi will indicate these missing words. Such use of
sentences with missing words occur in all languages.

TODAYS LIST
-----------
In the first list we cite verses where God promises the
Partriarchs to give Israel to us. In the second list we
cite other verses which cross reference these verses.
This helps justify the ellipsis. The first list contains
4 verses corresponding to promises to the 3 patriarchs & Moses

We present cross references to the promise to give us Israel
Notice the elliptical phrase SWORE [TO GIVE US] which Rashi
restores to Dt26-15b Thus the perception of this verse as
missing was not primarily grammatical but rather based on
cross reference
