The table below presents
two contradictory verses/verselets.
Both verses/verselets talk about
the delivery of food by Esauv to Isaac for purposes of blessing.
The underlined words highlight the contradiction.
One verse/verselet says
please get up
while the other verse/verselet says
please sit down.
Which is it?
Was it a request to get up or sit down?
Rashi simply resolves this using the
2 stages
method:
Esauv requested that Isaac 1st) get up
and 2nd) sit down at the dinner table
so that Esauv could serve him the venizon he caught.
