      8. RASHI METHOD: DATABASES
      BRIEF EXPLANATION:Rashi makes inferences from Database queries. The precise definition of database query has been identified in modern times with the 8 operations of Sequential Query Language (SQL).
      This example applies to Rashis Ex17-11a
      URL Reference: (c) http://www.Rashiyomi.com/w35n5.htm
      Brief Summary: Moses reinforced needed dependence on God during a military maneuver by RAISING HIS HANDS (in prayer).

We ask the following database query: Does the Torah and Jewish leaders reinforce moral values through symbolic reminders. The reader is encouraged to perform the query using a standard Biblical Konnkordance or search engine. This database query yields the list below. The list justifies the following Rashi inference: The Torah and Jewish leaders reinforce moral values through symbolic reminders-hence Moses RAISED HIS HANDS [in prayer] during the war The list below presents the results of the database query.

Verse Event Need Symbolic reminder
Ex17-11a War with Amalayk Prayer Moses raised his hands
Nu21-09a God's cure of snake bites in nation Prayer Placing the the copper snake on high (hinting to heaven)
Dt12-02 Destroying Idolatry Horror of crime Even the idolatrous trees are killed
Lv20-15a Punishment for sleeping with animals Horror of crime Animal is stoned to death also
Ex20-23a Temple service Decorum, atmosphere, modesty Use ramp vs. staircase so as not to excessively expose nakedness
