SUCCINCT SUMMARY:
----------------
One of Rashis 5 main goals is to explain grammar
the same way dictionaries do. One component of
Hebrew grammar is the examination of plurality.

EXAMPLE Ex29-24a
----------------
Moses places the sacrificial object on Aarons hand
and HE(vs. THEY) waives them. (Rashi) Moses waived
Aarons hand which held the sacrificial objects (When a
SINGULAR verb is used with a PLURAL subject then
it indicates that one person instigates the
action)*1
