      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 Gn25-23d Gn25-23e Gn25-22a
      URL Reference: (c) http://www.Rashiyomi.com/gn25-23d.htm
      Brief Summary: God communicates prophecy thru symbolic acts: a) 2 infants fighting = 2 nations at war; b) Esauv hairy/ruddy = Edom fights like an animal c) Jacob grabbed Esauv by heal = Smaller Jewish nation overpowers bigger power.

    We ask the following database query: Does God communicate prophecy explicitly or thru symbols? 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 communicates prophecy through symbolic items. The list below presents the results of the database query and provides examples.

Verse Symbol mentioned Meaning of symbol
Jr01-13:14 Burning pot in north Burning anti-semitism of Northern nations
Ex17-11 Jews were victorious when Moses raised his hands Jews were victorious when they responded to his call for prayer
Is20-02:06 Isiah walks naked 3 years Egypt will be exiled and its citizens will be without clothes
Gn25-22:26 2 infants fight in womb 2 nations at war with each other [Jews vs Esauv]
Gn25-22:26 One infant is hairy and ruddy One nation fights like an animal
Gn25-22:26 Jacob holding heal of Esauv Weaker nation will hold more powerful nation at bay
