      10. RASHI METHOD: SYMBOLISM
      BRIEF EXPLANATION: Rashi provides symbolic interpretations of words, verses, and chapters. Rashi can symbolically interpret either
      • (10a) entire Biblical chapters such as the gifts of the princes, Nu-07
      • (10b) individual items, verses and words
      The rules governing symbolism and symbolic interpretation are presented in detail on my website.
      This examples 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.

    Please see rule #8, Databases above. There we explained that God communciates prophecy thru symbolism. We also explained the symbolism of Rivkah's pregnancy.
  • Two infants fighting = two nations fighting
  • One infant hairy and ruddy = one nation fights like an animal
  • The younger infant grabbed the heal of the hairy infant = the weaker nation will hold the more powerful nation at bay.

For further details and examples please see rule #8 above.
