VERSE: Dt22-18a
RASHIS COVERED: Dt22-18a Dt21-18c Dt22-20a
================ OTHER VERSES: FURTHER DETAILS =============
VERY BRIEF SUMMARY
------------------
Dt22-18a and Dt21-18c refer to DISCIPLINING criminal acts.
Thus Dt22-18a discusses disciplining someone who slandered
his wife. Dt21-18c refers to DISCIPLINING a rebellious son
who steals from his parents. We learn the meaning of this
non-specific term DISCIPLINING from an OTHER VERSE Dt25-01:04
which prescribes LASHES as a disciplinary action.
Similarly from Prov23-20 we infer that this rebellious son
is involved with drunkards and meat gorgers. Similarly we
infer from Dt17-06 that death penalties require 2 witnesses
Throughout Rashi uses the technique of OTHER VERSES.

TODAYS RASHI RULE: OTHER VERSES
TODAYS RASHI SUBRULE: FURTHER DETAILS
---------------------------------------
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE RULE and SUBRULE
-----------------------------------------
The rule of OTHER VERSES simply means that Rashi
is explaining one verse by citing an OTHER VERSE
One way of doing this is to cross reference a
verse that speaks about the SAME topic but gives
FURTHER details.
STANDARD EXAMPLE
----------------
The following example comes from the Passover
Hagaddah
Dt26-05 states that
-------------------------------
With only a FEW PEOPLE did the
Jews go down to Egypt
-------------------------------
FURTHER DETAILS on the meaning of
the Biblical phrase FEW PEOPLE is
provided in Gn46.
EXERCISE:
---------
Before reading the Rashi try reading
Gn46 yourself and see if you can
discover the further details.
RASHIS SOLUTION
---------------
Rashi cites Gn46-27
-----------------------------
The total number of people who
came with Jacob to Egypt is 70
-----------------------------
Thus the Rashi method of OTHER VERSES
in this case has explained to us that
the FEW PEOPLE that went down to
Egypt refers to SEVENTY people

HOW TO USE THESE LISTS FOR SCHOOL PROJECTS
------------------------------------------
You can use the LIST below for school projects.
Here is how, if you are a teacher then you
can present the verse in the first column
(eg Dt26-05) and the CHAPTER (but not the verse)
in the 3rd column---e.g. Gn46.
The student is then instructed to discover
the further details. The students solution
can then be compared with Rashis.
TODAYS EXAMPLE
--------------
We give several examples of inferences from other verses.
The first 5 rows are new examples from todays posting.

NOTES
-----
*1 First some background: There were 3 camps
-- There was the TEMPLE which had the highest holiness
-- Outside this was the CAMP OF LEVITES (Nu02-17)
-- Outside this was the CAMP OF TRIBES (Nu02)
These camps surrounded each others like concentric
squares (The Temple in the center, the Levites
surrounding them, the tribes surrounding the Levites)
Nu05-02 states that ALL IMPURE PEOPLE should be expelled
from the camp without specifying which one.Rashi-is-Simple
- Lv13-46 states that the LEPOR should be ISOLATED. Hence
he is expelled from ALL 3 camps
- Ex13-19 states that Moses took the bones of Joseph with
him. But Moses was a Levite and dwelled among the
Levites. Hence we infer that someone who is impure
because of contact with the dead may stay in the LEVITE
camp but may not stay in the TEMPLE CAMP.
- We find no permission for the Zav to be in the Levite
camp and we do have a requirement for the Lepor to
be isolated. Hence we infer that the Zav may dwell in
the Israelite camp (so as to leave the lepor ALONE)
but may not dwell in the Temple or Levite camp.
The Talmud (Pesachim 67) goes into further details and
alternative derivations but the above captures the
flavor of the argument which is based on other verses.
