SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- One of Rashis 6 main goals is explaining meaning, the same way the dictionary explains meaning. Rashi had a variety of vehicles to explain meaning. Today we focus on explaining meaning by EXAGGERATION. For example BREAKFAST refers to the day-s first meal; it is the meal where you BREAK your FAST. Here are some Biblical examples. EXAMPLE 1 --------- Ex21-03 If he comes IN-HIS-BODY RASHI: IN-HIS-BODY-ONLY--that is, single EXAMPLE 2 --------- Lv19-20a If she is WINTERED to a man RASHI: WINTERED--that is engaged (COLD vs the warmth of marriage with full relations) | ||
