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. | ||

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 | |
|
|

*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). | ||
