SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- One of Rashis 5 main goals is to indicate paragraph structure. One method of paragraph structure is to use the CLIMAX method to infer meaning That is, the ASSUMED CLIMACTIC development of a paragraph theme forces inference of meaning from the paragraph structure EVEN if the individual words dont justify this. EXAMPLE Nu09-22a ---------------- Nu09-20:22 has the GENERAL theme that the CLOUD of GLORY could stay ANY LENGTH OF TIME and then depart. This GENERAL theme is developed as follows: GENERAL Nu09-20 The cloud could stay ANY NUMBER OF DAYS DETAIL Nu09-21 - the cloud could stay..TWELVE HOUR PERIOD DETAIL Nu09-21 - or it could stay......DAY AND NIGHT DETAIL Nu09-22 - or if the cloud stays TWO DAYS DETAIL Nu09-22 - or .................. A MONTH DETAIL Nu09-22 - or .................. DAYS Rashi: The CLIMACTIC development - 12 hours - 24 hours - 2 days - Month - DAYS clearly shows that the word DAYS means a YEAR (Even though DAYS by itself normally does not mean a YEAR) Here Rashi infers meaning from PARAGRAPH STRUCTURE and CLIMACTIC development (but not from the meaning of the words involved). This is a fundamental principle! Understand it. EXAMPLE Gn24-55a Gn24-55b ------------------------- The Biblical text states ----------------------- Please, let the girl stay with us - a DAY = YEAR - or TEN = TEN MONTHS ----------------------- Rashi: The identification of DAY=YEAR and TEN=TEN MONTHS is based on the principle of (ANTI-)CLIMAX which states that first you request something big and then REDUCE your request. | ||
