      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 Nu20-01c
      URL Reference: (c) http://www.Rashiyomi.com/rule1419.htm
      Brief Summary: Moses and Aaron died on the word of God - kiss death. Miryam also died that way but for modesty reasons it is not explicitly stated biblically.

We ask the following database query: Who in the Bible died by the word of God. 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: Moses and Aaron died by the word of God. This refers to death by a prophetic experience so that the soul immediately joins with God without undergoing the pains of death. It seems reasonable that Miryam, whom the Bible identifies as a prophet, also died the same way. However the Bible did not explicitly say by the mouth of God when discussing her death, for reasons of Modesty. The list below presents the results of the database query and shows examples

Person Biblical Verse Text of Verse Comments
Moses Dt34-05 And Moses, the servant of the Lord, died there, in the land of Moab, by the mouth of the Lord. Death by mouth of God, i.e., by prophetic experience
Aaron Nu33-38 Aaron the kohen ascended Mount Hor by the mouth of God and died there, on the first day of the fifth month in the fortieth year of the children of Israel's exodus from Egypt. Death by mouth of God, i.e., by prophetic experience
Miriam Nu20-01 The entire congregation of the children of Israel arrived at the desert of Zin in the first month, and the people settled in Kadesh. Miriam died there and was buried there. It seems reasonable that Miriam, who was called a Prophetess (Ex15-20) also, like her brothers, died by prophetic experience. However the Bible doesn't explicitly state by the mouth of God for reasons of modesty.
