VERSE: Gn30-37e
RASHIS COVERED: Gn30-37e Gn30-37b
(C) Dr Hendel, Jan-04 | ||
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 Is47-02 --------------- - UNCOVER your FARHEAD - X$P---- your LEGS - UNCOVER your THIGHS cross the river From the alignment we infer that the Hebrew root X$P means EXPOSE or UNCOVER (Rashi: Gn30-37e) EXAMPLE Gn30-37b ---------------- - Jacob TOOK------- a branch - Jacob PCLed------ white PCLs - Jacob EXPOSED the white of the branches From the alignment we infer that the Hebrew root PCL means TO PEAL. Thus - the verb form is TO PEEL - the noun form is PEELS Note that the Hebrew root PCL only incurs in this verse and therefore the only method of inferring its meaning is from alignment. Note also that our use of ALIGNMENT to infer meaning corresponds to the Rabbi Ishmael rule of INFERRENCE FROM CONTEXT In this case we have explained HOW INFERENCE FROM CONTEXT is made--inference from context is made by alignment. | ||

Differs | *1 | *2 | *3 | |
|
||||
*1 Same in all phrases *2 From the alignment we infer that PCL means TO PEEL - PCLed*10 = verb form = TO PEEL - PCLs*10 = noun form = PEELs *3 These supplementary phrases support the contention that Jacob PEELED the branches EXPOSING their white bark | ||||
|

*10 We are of course mixing Hebrew and English here. - The ED in PCLed is simply a way of indicating a verb form - the S in PCLs is simply a away of indicating a noun form The actual Hebrew is WIPCL-vs PCLed and PCLWT vs PCLs |
