ALEPH means PERSONALITY


VERSE: Gn25-20b ARAM means UPPER CLASS

VERY BRIEF SUMMARY
------------------
Rashi believed that while GRAMMAR  is dictated by 3 letter
roots, MEANING is dictated by 2 letter roots. Hence the
meaning of every 3 letter root can be ascertained  from
the meaning of the last 2 root letters plus the meaning of
the first root letter.Rashi/Rav Hirsch suggested that ALEPH
means PERSONALITY. I have extended this idea by
assigning meanings to all the letters. Hence ARM,UPPER CLASS,
are PEOPLE (ALEPH)that are HIGH(RAM); LAT,(to gulp), is to
do ALOT (LAMED) of LUNGING (AT) with the tongue; LAM, a
SUPERPOWER denotes ALOT(LAMED) of COUNTRIES (AM).

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF TODAYS RASHI RULE
--------------------------------------
Rashi had 6 main goals in his commentary. One of them was
to explain the meaning of words the same way a dictionary
explains words. Rashi had a variety of methods by which
meaning was explained. One of them was the idea that every
letter is assigned a meaning. The meanings of 3 letter roots
are then equated with the meanings of the first root letter
and the last 2 root letters. Although Rashi did not always
state this, and although justification of meaning can sometimes
be accomplished by examining comparable verses with that
meaning, we feel that the 1 letter approach can sometimes be
punchier and justified by lists of 3 letter  roots.

TODAYS LIST
-----------
The list below gives roots where ALEPH means PEOPLE, PERSON,
or PERSONALITY.  The list afterwards shows examples  where
LAMED means ALOT. Let us show how this work using the first
entry in the list
- ARM means UPPER CLASS
- The first root letter A, ALEPH, of ARAM means PERSON
- The last 2 root letters, RM, means HIGH
- So the sum of the first and last 2 root letters would be
PEOPLE WHO ARE HIGH UP (upper class)
We hope you enjoy the other examples in the lists
ROOT MEANING =MEANING LAST 2 LETTERS MEANING OF ALEPH

ASHM Guilt Desolation of the personality
AVD Lost Isolated from a person
