====== In this module we study the Bible method of INDICATING BULLETS or PARAGRAPHS by REPEATING KEYWORDS TODAYS UNIT =========== The first part of this module studied bullets.

EXAMPLE 13: Dt18-14a NATIONS:ASTROLOGERS::JEWS:PROPHETS EXAMPLE 14: Gn06-18a NOACH:BRINGS FOOD::GOD PROTECTS NOACH/FOOD BACKGROUND ---------- When you type in English you can use a variety of TYPING EFFECTS such as - indentation - paragraphing - bold, italics, underline - bullets - tables These techniques were not DIRECTLY available to the Biblical Author. However they were used in the Bible.One of Rashis 6 main tasks was to indicate how the Bible implemented TYPING EFFECTS. In the first part of this module we studied how REPEATING KEYWORDS would be represented in modern notation by BULLETS. In this 2nd part of this module we study how CONTRASTING KEYWORDS represent PARAGRAPHS. We show one example in this background section and then present different examples every day. THE TEXT-Gn06-17:21 -------------------------------------------------------- AND I GOD will bring a flood will keep a treaty with you will allow you to come to ark will allow you to save animals AND YOU (NOACH) Take food for everyone --------------------------------------------------------- THE RASHI Gn06-18a ------------------ The REPEATING/CONTRASTING KEYWORDS, AND I vs AND YOU indicate two paragraphs. If we were writing this in modern notation we might eg BOLD THESE PHRASES -- AND I GOD or AND YOU -- as headers of a section. Rashi notes that the 2 separate sections create emphasis -- NOACH brings the food -- GOD protects Noach (and Noachs food from rotting) In general the contrasting paragraphs indicate minor nuances and emphasis. THE LIST -------- We will bring 2-3 such paragraph structures every day. Today we start off with some OBVIOUS and EASY ONES | ||||
| (#) | VERSE | TOPIC | CONTRAST-1 | CONTRAST-2 |
| *5 | Gn06-17:21 | Flood | God protects | Noach brings food |
| *6 | Dt18-14 | Know future | non-jew;astrlgy | jews prophecy |
| COMMENTS | ||||
*5 Gn06-17:21 states
------------------------------------------------------
AND I will bring a flood
and keep my treaty with you
& You will survive in the ark
with 2 of every animal...
AND YOU Take Food for all in the ark
-------------------------------------------------------
Rashi emphasizes the contrast: Noach brought food
and God executed the treaty ie He protected it from rotting
*6 Dt18-14a States the following contrast
------------------------------------------------------
FOR THESE NATIONS: Seek advice from ASTROLOGERS
AND YOU: God had not given you such things
God will give you PROPHETS
------------------------------------------------------
In other words PROPHETS:JEWS is in contrast to
NATIONS:ASTROLOGERS.
(Rashi also mentions the URIM & TUMIM by which the Priests
sought advice from God)
