VERSE: Nu04-05a

VERY BRIEF SUMMARY ------------------ Nu04 tells us about the service of the Kehathites. But a loose examination of the chapter Nu04 seems to show contradictions. For we are told about - PACKING up the temple items - CARRYING the temple items - A prohibition against TOUCHING the temple items How can they PACK them without CARRYING THEM. Rashi explains that this apparent contradiction is easily resolved as soon as we carefully look at the subjects of the sentences -- The PRIESTS pack the TEMPLE ITEMS -- THEN the KEHATHITES carry the packed items -- Since the PRIESTS pack them the KEHATHITES dont touch the temple items (which would incur a death penalty) Thus we use the RabbiIshmael method of contradiction which resolves with several cases | ||

*10 Rashis point is strengthened by the abrupt change of subject ----------------------------------------------- Nu04-04 This is the job the KEHATHITES Nu04-05 The PRIESTS come and cover the articles ... Nu04-15 ..and AFTERWARDS the KEHATHITES come ----------------------------------------------- If one just reads Nu04-04 and Nu04-05 by themselves it appears as if the PRIESTS mentioned in Nu04-05 refer back to the KEHATHITES mentioned in Nu04-04 |
