VERSE: Dt28-38a

RASHIS COVERED: Dt28-38a Dt28-20a Lv13-51a

=========================== Dt28-38a ==========================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
One of Rashis main goals is to explain word meaning the same
way a dictionary explains meaning. The Rashi explanation of
word meanings can be greatly appreciated by examining half a
dozen Biblical verses where this word occurs. Frequently the
Rashi translation can be inferred from examining these verses.

EXAMPLE XSL - Dt28-38a
----------------------
The verses in the list below clearly show that XSL refers
to a type of creature that devastates fields

EXAMPLE MAR - Dt28-20a Lv13-51a
-------------------------------
The verses in the list below clearly show that RAH refers
to something DESTRUCTIVE (Rashi translates it as something
DIMINISHING which has a similar connotation)

=========================== LIST802g =========================
List of verses where     XSL refers to FIELD DEVASTATION
==============================================================
VERSE    TRANSLATION OF VERSES; XSL seems to mean DEVASTATION
======== =====================================================
Yo01-04	 Anything left over in the field is eaten by the XSL*1
Dt28-38a You will sow little from your big yield due to XSL*1	
Is33-04	 Your possessions shall be taken like the XSL takes*1
-------  -------------------------------------
P078-46  You gave their field produce to the XSL
2C06-28  When locusts or XSL come...they will pray here
1K08-37	 When locusts or XSL destroy...Jews will pray here
Yo02-25	 I-ll pay you back for the destruction of XSL-locust

NOTES
-----
*1 The first 3 verses in this list seem to emphasize that
   the XSL are a type of locust known especially for their
   totally destructive nature
==============================================================

=========================== LIST802h ==========================
List of verses where     MAR refers to DESTRUCTIVE DISEASES
===============================================================
VERSE     TRANSLATION OF VERSE WITH meaning of MAR capped
========= =====================================================
Ma02-02	  I will send DESTRUCTION;I will curse your BLESSINGS*1
Lv13-51a  It is a DESTRUCTIVE affliction in the garment
Lv13-52	  It is a DESTRUCTIVE affliction in the garment
Lv14-44	  It is a DESTRUCTIVE affliction in the house
Dt28-20a  If you disobey I will send DESTRUCTION,CONFUSION,...
Ez28-24   Tzidon will no longer be a DESTRUCTIVE thorn

NOTES
-----
*1 All the verses in this list clearly have a connotation of
   destruction. However this verse
   -- identifies MAR with CURSES ON BLESSINGS
   -- hilights the pun of the three roots MAR-ARH-ARR
   Since ARH and ARR mean destroy this lends credence to the
   translation of MAR as DESTRUCTION (an equally good
   translation would be A REAL CURSE)
