VERSE: Dt32-06a

=================== Dt32-06a ==================================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
A major method of Rashi is to comment on STYLE
Rashi is aided by the Rabbi Ishmael STYLE rules
The purpose of the Rabbi Ishmael STYLE rules
is to determine whether a text should be
interpreted literally or broadly

EXAMPLE
-------
Dt32-06 states a GENERAL THEME: Do you mistreat God?
Notice how this general theme is not further explained

The next phrases in Dt32-06 provide DETAILS & PARTICULARS
- You have forgotten the Good, God did for you
- You are ignoring the Good, God will do for you

In other words the subsequent phrases in the verse
amplify the original opening phrase and explain WHY
the Jews should not mistreat God
