VERSE: Ex02-10a
RASHIS COVERED: Ex02-10a Ex05-06a
========================== Ex02-10a ============================
SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
One of Rashis 10 main methods is the explanation of meaning
the same way a dictionary explains meaning. We call this
the WORD MEANING method.
----------------------------------------------
Rashi had 10 vehicles to explain meaning. The SYNONYM
submethod takes words with known meanings and shows the
similarity and nuances in each term.
----------------------------------------------
EXAMPLE 1: Ex02-10a
----------------------------
The Hebrew roots
- Yud Tzade Aleph means TO TAKE OUT
- Mem shin Hey means TO TAKE OUT OF WATER
These SYNONYMS mean the same thing but are used in
DIFFERNT CONTEXTS. Similar SYNONYMS (differing only
by usage and context) occur frequently in language
(For example FLOCK of sheep vs SCHOOL of fish vs
SWARM of bees--all 3 words, FLOCK,SCHOOL, SWARM
means GROUP).
EXAMPLE 2: Ex05-06a
-------------------
Verse Ex05-06a states
--------------------------------
On that day Pharoh commanded the
POLICE CAPTAINS and POLICE OFFICERS
as follows....do not...
--------------------------------
The distinction between a POLICE CAPTAIN
vs OFFICER is well known in all languages
and need not be further explored.

NOTES
-----
*1 Rashi does not indicate how he knows that the
cutoff point for ram vs sheep is 2 years.
- Perhaps this is general knowledge which shepards
know (That maturation takes places at two)
- Supportive verses show that a one year old
is still considered a sheep (Eg Ex12-05)
*2 Also Lv07-34a See LIST955p for an analysis
of verses with WAIVE vs OSCILLATE
*3 Cf. 1S15-03 where the explicit order to totally
exterminate Amalayk was given
*4 There are many words for conquer: CONQUEST, SUBDUE,
SMITE, WAR, etc. Our point here is to emphasize that
ERASE means REMOVE ALL MEMORY.
*5 Cf. The English metaphor "No strings attached."
*6 The idea that TAKER OF WOMAN=ENGAGED while
GROOMS=ALREADY MARRIED fits into the following verses,
Gn20-02:04
--------------------------------------------------
And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister;
and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and became
ENGAGED to [litrally: TOOK] Sarah. But God came to
Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him,
Behold, you are but a dead man, because of the
woman whom you have taken; for she is a man’s wife.
But Abimelech had not CONSUMATED the marriage;
and he protested, ....
