COMMENT: Sorry about forgetting verse list yesterday. They are included in this issue. RASHIS COVERED: Gn49-13b AYIN LAMED means NEAR Nu02-20a Nu13-29b Lv15-25b Dt06-08a 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. | ||

*1 AYL PARAN is the name of a place *2 Nu13-29 literally says --- Amalek sat ON THE HAND of the Jordan Rashi does two things - Rashi translates ON as NEAR (AYIN LAMED) - Rashi translates HAND of JORDAN RIVER as TRIBUTARY of JORDAN RIVER (Since tributaries look like a hand) Hence the whole verse is translated --- Amalek sat NEAR the TRIBUTARY of the Jordan *3 ie She sees a blood flow one day after her period *4 NEAR your hand means the UPPER ARM That is Tefillin are placed on the UPPER ARM For further details see |
