      3. RASHI METHOD: GRAMMAR
      BRIEF EXPLANATION: Rashi explains verses using grammar principles, that is, rules which relate reproducable word form to word meaning. Grammatical rules neatly fall into 3 categories
      • (a) the rules governing conjugation of individual words,Biblical roots,
      • (b) the rules governing collections of words,clauses, sentences
      • (c) miscellaneous grammatical, or form-meaning, rules.
      This examples applies to Rashis Dt04-35a

      Brief Summary: You have BEEN SHOWN PROPHECIES and personally know God is the true Lord.

Most people know that the Biblical meaning of a word is determined by its underlying three-letter root. The Biblical root can be conjugated in different a) persons, b) tenses, c) pluralities, d) genders, e) constructions and f) modalities. For example I watched has a different conjugation then I will be watched even though both phrases use the same 3 letter Hebrew root.

Rashi explains that the Hebrew root Resh-Aleph-Hey can mean both see and prophetically see. However the causative-passive (Hafal) always means that we received (passive) from God (causative) a prophecy. The following verses illustrate this: Dt04-35a You have received prophecy, that you might know that the Lord is God; there is no other beside him ; Ex25-40 And see that you make them after their pattern, which was prophetically shown to you in the mount.
