    9. RASHI METHOD: NonVerse
    BRIEF EXPLANATION: The common denominator of the 3 submethods of the Spreadsheet method is that inferences are made from non textual material. The 3 submethods are as follows:
    • Spreadsheet: Rashi makes inferences of a numerical nature that can be summarized in a traditional spreadsheet
    • Geometric: Rashi clarifies a Biblical text using descriptions of geometric diagrams
    • Fill-ins: Rashi supplies either real-world background material or indicates real-world inferences from a verse. The emphasis here is on the real-world, non-textual nature of the material.
    This examples applies to Rashis Gn44-13a

    Brief Summary: And EACH man ladeled his donkey [By himself] RASHI: This shows that they were all strong and independent; capable of ladeling a donkey without need of extra help.

Verse Gn44-13a discussing the return of the brothers to Egypt after their donkeys were unloaded and searched states And they rent their clothes, and each man laded his donkey, and returned to the city. Rashi explains the real-world connotations of the underlined words: The emphasis that each man ladeled his donkey emphasizes that each of the brothers was strong and physically independent since they were capable of ladeling a donkey by themselves.
