VERSE: Dt15-05a

RASHIS COVERED: Dt15-05a Dt15-05b

=============== Dt15-05a ======================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
We align Dt15-05 and Dt28-01 both of which
speak about the Jews being blessed with
being the top nation if they do Gods will
The alignment shows two subtle differences
(a) If the Jews AT LEAST do the ONE commandment
in the chapter (waiving loans every 7 years)
then God will eliminate poverty;but (b) if the
Jews do the MANY other commandments then they
will be rewarded with being the TOP nation

=========================== LIST307e ==================================

We align Dt15-05:06 with Dt28-01. In the interests of space
we have omitted some extra phrases. We have translated RAK as
meaning not ONLY but rather meaning AT LEAST. We have explored
the meaning of RAK in several verses and find this the best
translation (see http://www.RashiYomi.com/gn20-11a.htm)

Dt15-05 There will be no poor     IF YOU AT LEAST do this Commandment
Dt28-01 ---------------------     --------------- -------------------
------- ---------------------     --------------- -------------------
Dt15-06 You-ll reign over nations IF you at least do THIS commandment
Dt28-01 You-ll be top nation      IF              do THESE commandments
Differs *1 *3                     *1              *2

NOTES
-----
*1 So if you just do THIS commandment (The chapter speaks
   about waiving loans every 7 years) then God will prevent
   poverty (But (see next note) if you do many (THESE)commandments
   you will also be made the TOP nation)

*2 And then (once you are rewarded with no poverty and decide
   to) do many commandments(commandmentS vs commandment) and
   you will be rewarded with being the TOP nation

*3 One verse says REIGN OVER NATIONS while the other verse says
   be TOP nation. So one verse simply gives a good example
   of the general idea of being TOP nation.
