    4. RASHI METHOD: ALIGNMENT
    BRIEF EXPLANATION: Aligning two almost identically worded verselets can suggest
    • (4a) 2 cases of the same incident or law
    • (4b) emphasis on the nuances of a case
    • (4c) use of broad vs literal usage of words
    This examples applies to Rashis Ex30-36b
    URL Reference: (c) http://www.Rashiyomi.com/w33n9.htm Brief Summary: God designates the Temple FOR prophetic communication.

The table below presents an aligned extract of verses in Ex25-22, Ex30-36b Both verses discuss designation of the Kaporeth area as a place of meeting God. The alignment justifies the Rashi assertions that God meets the Jews in the Kaporeth area for prophetic communication.

Verse Text of Verse Rashi comment
Ex30-36b And thou shalt beat some of it [the incense] very small, and put of it before the 10 commandments in the Temple where I will meet with thee; it shall be unto you most holy. We are only told her that God will meet by the ark of the 10 commandments but we are not told how that meeting takes place.
Ex25-22 And there I will meet with you, and I will talk with you from above the cover, from between the two kerubim which are upon the ark of the 10 commandments, of all things which I will give you in commandment to the people of Israel. We are told that God will meet by the ark of the 10 commandments for the purpose of prophecy.
