COMMENTS
 
*1 A peach of a Rashi showing the beautiful harmony between
- the simple meaning of the text
- the so called midrashic meaning of the text

Rashi states
--------------------------------------------------
XRD means STARTLED/SHOCKED (Rashi-is-Simple...Esauv
had just left...so his reappearance STARTLED Isaac)
--------------------------------------------------

But Rashi then continues
--------------------------------------------------
And the Midrash states that ISAAC saw HELL and
hence the word XRD
--------------------------------------------------

But neither the Midrash nor Rashi can go against
the above list...XRD means STARTLE not the sight
of hell.

But Rashi comments on TWO items in the verse. For
although there are many verses with the root XRD
only TWO verses contain the phrase GREAT XRD--
GREAT STARTLE.

Dn10-07 contains the phrase GREAT STARTLE when
speaking about the great vision of the 4
terror beasts. So quite simply....Isaac didnt
exactly see hell but he saw he was lied to and
he understood that he had witnessed the power
of the 4 terror beasts (Esauv is identified with
Rome which is considered the 4th)

Note the great beauty of this Rashi--both comments
- XRD=startle
- GREAT XRD = startle at shock of history
are
- the simple meaning of the text
- backed up by lists.
There is no SIMPLE vs HOMILETIC meaning..rather
there is simply the text and its clear and
unambiguous nuances!

Understand this for Rashi never states anything
but the simple meaning of the text.
