VERY BRIEF SUMMARY ------------------ One of Rashis 6 main goals is to explain the meaning of words the same way the dictionary explains meaning. It was shown in http://www.RashiYomi.com/lv26-46a.htm that the word TORAH basically means PRINCIPLES. Hence if a BIblical paragraph begins -- THESE ARE THE PRINCIPLES OF THE MINCHAH OFFERING we infer that everything in that chapter is a basic guiding principle or requirement of ALL MINCHAHS*10 EXAMPLE Lv06-07a ---------------- Taking a fistful of flour and oil applies to all Minchahs(But in Lv02 this procedure is only mentioned by SOME Minchahs--hence we need the generalization to all minchahs)*1 EXAMPLE Lv06-08e ---------------- The sequence of steps: - FISTING the oil and flour, and then - taking the Frankincense, - offering it on the altar applies to all Minchahs even though it is only mentioned by some. The reason we know it applies to ALL minchahs is because this sequence of steps is mentioned in the chapter of MINCHAH PRINCIPLES*2 | ||

*1 Cf The 5 Minchahs mentioned in Lv02. Only some of them mention the OIL and FLOUR Hence the OIL-FLOUR was repeated in the MINCHAH PRINCIPLE chapter so that it applies to all Minchahs *2 Cf The 5 Minchahs mentioned in Lv02. The 3 step procedure of FISTFUL, FRANKINCENSE, OFFERING is not mentioned in all 5. Hence the FISTFUL-FRANKINCENSE-OFFERING procedure is repeated in the MINCHAH PRINCIPLE CHAPTER to emphasize the applicability of this sequence to all cases. | ||
|
|
||
*10 Our approach differs from the traditional approach that Rashi is inferring these laws (that eg oil and flour apply to all Minchahs) from the EXTRA MENTION of them a second time. Our view here is that the inference that eg flour and oil apply to all Minchahs comes from the EXPLICIT introduction that THESE ARE THE GUIDING PRINCIPLES OF THE MINCHAH indicating that they apply to all Minchahs. | ||

A list of verses where TORAH means PRINCIPLES (Torah can also be a proper noun referring to the Bible and it can also mean chapter) However Rashis point of view is that TORAH ALWAYS means PRINCIPLES. So when a chapter begins with TORAH it really means, NOT, THIS IS THE CHAPTER ON MINCHAH but rather, THESE ARE THE MINCHAH PRINCIPLES | |||
