VERSE: Dt27-09a

RULE: The Hebrew phrase "HASCAYTH USHMAH" means GATHER & LISTEN.
This word occurs only once in the whole Bible

METHOD 1
--------
The simplest proof of this is by context
        "and Moses said to Israel GATHER & LISTEN to the
        words I command you this day"

METHOD 2
--------
The word HASCAYTH might come from the root SC which means
TO GATHER (eg Ps42-5).


METHOD 3
--------
The opinions of 3 Rishonim are brought in the main posting


Again this word only occurs once in the Bible.
