SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- Rashi frequently makes powerful inferences from the alignment of ALMOST similar verses. The minor variations between these almost similar verses suggests nuances and differences.or even meaning. EXAMPLE Gn17-15 Renaming of Abraham vs Sarah -------------------------------------------- Gn17-15 You dont call your wife Sarai -------------- cause Sarah is name Gn17-05 Others wont call you ---- Abrm Rather Abraham cause leader Differs *1 *2 *3 *3 Note the 4 differences -1- Abraham-s renaming is from others;Sarahs renaming is from Abraham -2- Abraham renamed to world; Sarah renamed to husband -3- Abrahams rename and reason are two things:ABRAHAM because he is LEADER -3- Sarahs rename and reason are one and the same...Sarah is no longer MY PRINCESS (English translation of Sarai) but rather THE PRINCESS(Eng translation of Sarah) because Sarah is now Princess to all of Abrahams children (See for example Gn20-12 where God told Abraham to give in to Sarah in decisions about Abrahams other son---Ishmael) ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: ---------------- The idea for the above posting came from Yitz who said he just noticed the difference in phraseology in the renaming of Abraham and Sarah. I explained to him that difference in phraseology is a Rashi method called ALIGNMENT. I also explained that by reviewing ALL differences one can usually UNDERSTAND the reasons for the minor differences. Yitz is one of the newest members to the Rashi-is-Simple family. Welcome! | ||
