RASHIS COVERED: Nu28-10b AYIN LAMED means BESIDES
Lv03-04d Lv03-05a

QUESTION
--------
Ex01-05a states that PHAROHS DAUGHTER WAS WALKING ON THE NILE
But Rashi states that the Hebrew word AYIN-LAMED means NEAR.
Thus Rashi translates the verse: PHAROHS DAUGHTER WAS WALKING
NEAR THE NILE. Is this the real meaning of AYIN-LAMED? Can
other examples be produced.

ANSWER
------
The Hebrew word AYIN-LAMED which is usually translated as
ON in fact has half a dozen meanings in addition to the special
idiomatic meanings it has with other words. Here are some
examples: AYIN-LAMED can mean a) ON, b) WITH, c) AT THE TIME OF
d) TOWARDS, e) FOR, f) NEAR, g) BESIDES. Furthermore in
conjunction with other words it can have idiomatic meaning--for
example it can mean a) DEPRESSED, b) THEREFORE or SINCE.

Today we review examples where AYIN LAMED means
BESIDES.
LIST004e
(C) Dr Hendel, Dec-02

We present verses with the Hebrew word AYIN-LAMED
AYIN-LAMED has 7 basic meanings and several idiomatic meanings

In LIST004a we reviewed verses where AYIN LAMED means ON
In LIST004d we reviewed verses where AYIN LAMED means BETH
such as BY, AT THE SAME TIME etc
In LIST004e we review verses where AYIN LAMED means BESIDES
Today we start off simply

VERSE TEXT OF VERSE:AYIN-LAMED MEANS besides
Nu28-10b offer this sacrifice BESIDES the morning offering
Lv03-04d offer this sacrifice BESIDES the morning offering
Lv03-05a ....offer it BESIDES (or NEAR/RIGHT AFTER) the OLAH*1
COMMENTS
*1 The primary meaning of the word AYIN LAMED is ON.
ON denotes PROXIMITY IN AN ORDERED SEQUENCE
For example gravity defines a natural order(bottom-top)
and ON indicates that something is on TOP vs BOTTOM.

Similarly ON in the temporal sphere could indicate
that something is AFTER something else.

The commonality to ON and BESIDES is that both denote
AFTERNESS; the difference is that ON emphasizes TEMPORAL
proximity while BESIDES emphasizes AFTERNESS without
any necessary proximity.

In some of the verses above we speak about an additional
offering that is offered IMMEDIATELY AFTER the morning
OFFERING and hence ON (temporal vs spatial) is a more
precise translation than BESIDES. However in Lv03-05a
the emphasis is on BESIDES (The PEACE offering can be
offered ANY time after the MORNING offering).
