SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
One of  Rashis 6 main goals is to explain meaning
the same way a dictionary explains meaning. Rashi
had a variety of vehicles to explain meaning.

One focus of Rashi was on the meaning and usage of
grammatical connectives: Words such as BECAUSE, IF, THEN
WHEN, etc. have special usages and meanings

EXAMPLE
-------
Today and next digest we examine the word THIS
which is used as a referrant. THIS can either
- refer to some physical object that IS being discussed
eg what is THIS in your  hand

- refer to an ASSUMED object pointed to
eg THIS is the make of the Candellabrah
Rashi: God SHOWED him the Candellabrah image

- refer to a KNOWN phenomenon
eg THIS is the night of redemption to God
Rashi: Refers to the Exodus Prophecy of
Abraham where God promised Abraham redemption

technique and will be discussed in the  next digest when
