BACKGROUND
----------
One of the 6 main Rashi methods is the method of CROSS REFERENCE.
In this method Rashi clarifies the meaning of one verse by
citing OTHER verses. We have outlined 6 major methods by which
Rashi uses the technique of CROSS REFERENCE
REFERENCES
----------

THE TEXT
--------
- Ex25 thru Ex28 discusses the command to Make the temple
- Lv24-05:09 provides supplementary material on the temple TABLE
- Nu04 talks about disassembling the temple (for Journeys) and
hence casts indirect light on the temple construction
THE RASHI
---------
The Rashis provide FURTHER DETAILS on the table utensils from
OTHER VERSES. The use of OTHER VERSES to provide FURTHER DETAILS
is 1 major use of OTHER VERSES.
THE LIST

COMMENTS |
*2 Ex25-29 commands MAKING bowls and SPOONS while
Lv24-05:09 explains the FUNCTION of the SPOONS.
The SPOONS holds the INCENSE on the bread.
Thus the other VERSE provides more detail
*3 Ex25-29 speaks about
-----------------------------------------------
making KSOTH and MENAKIYOTH to COVER the bread
-----------------------------------------------
Nu04-07 speaks about the KSOTH THAT COVER. Hence I infer
that it is the KSOTH that COVER, not the MENAKIYOTH.
Technically then Ex25-29 is an example of a Dangling modifier
The KSOTH were 3 half rods which rested between the piled
loaves of bread and thereby helped provide air
to prevent the breads from becoming moldy.
1C28-17 mentions all 4 table utensils but calls the
MENAKIYOTH, FORKS. I therefore infer that the
MENAKIYOTH were VERTICAL 3-pronged-fork shaped objects into
which the horizontal KSOTH GUTTERS snapped and suported the
bread.(The MENAKIYOTH-FORKS-KSOTH-GUTTERS were like a STAND)
