      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 Nu01-01a
      URL Reference: (c) http://www.Rashiyomi.com/rule1414.htm
      Brief Summary: God continuously CENSUSED the Jews. Obsessive CENSUSING is typically a sign of great fondness

Today, we ask the following database query: How often are censii taken? 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: God continually counted the Jews with either a complete census or a census of those fallen during a plague. Such obsessive counting typically indicates great attachment and fondness. We conlude God had great love for the Jewish people. The list below presents the results of the database query and shows examples

Occasion Verse Census results After tragedy of Verse for tragedy
Exodus Ex12-07 About 600,000 adult males 80% of Jews died, never left Egypt Ex13-18
Year 2, Month 2 to Exodus, after Golden calf sin Nu01 603,550 Jews, 22,300 Levites 3,000 die after Golden calf sin Ex32-38
Complete census after Moabite-women-sin Nu26 601,730 24,000 die for sinning with Moabite women Nu24-10
