SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- One of Rashis 5 main goals is to indicate paragraph structure. One method of paragraph structure is to use the THEME-DETAIL-THEME style. EXAMPLE Lv26-07:08 ------------------------- Lv26-07:08 has the general theme of DEFEAT OF ENEMIES. This GENERAL theme is developed as follows - GENERAL Your enemies will fall before you - DETAIL ----------------- 5 will pursue 100 - DETAIL ----------------- 100 will pursue 10000 - GENERAL Your enemies will fall before you. Rashis contribution here is to perceive the paragraph as a whole. The GENERAL theme is re-interpreted consistent with the DETAILS of development. Hence we have the following Rashis --------------------------------------------------- - Enemies will fall before you UNEXPECTEDLY - The enemy will have casualties in their own camp --------------------------------------------------- Here, Rashi takes the details--5 will pursue 100, 100 will pursue 10000--and interprets the details as indicating UNEXPECTED ABNORMAL victory. Rashi then gives one example of UNEXPECTED victory---the enemy having casualties by accidents in their own camp. The important point to emphasize here is not the details of the Rashi comment but rather the general approach of reinterpreting the GENERAL THEME in light of the DETAILS | ||

*1 Rashi perceives the paragraph as a whole. Hence Rashi reinterprets ENEMIES WILL FALL BEFORE YOU in light of the details FIVE WILL PURSUE A HUNDRED. Rashi therefore reinterprets: YOUR ENEMIES WILL FALL BEFORE YOU IN AN UNEXPECTED MANNAR Rashi further gives an example of UNEXPECTED VICTORY: For example, if the enemy has casualties within their own camp. | |||
