VERSE: Ex04-07a

========================== Ex04-07a ==================================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
A major Rashi method is the ALIGNMENT method. The
ALIGNMENT rule makes inferences from the alignment of
almost identical verses or phrases. When the inferences
are NUANCES that are implied by the minor differences
in the aligned verses we say that Rashi is using the
subrule of NUANCES.

EXAMPLE Ex04-07a
----------------
The text of Ex04-06:07 states
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ex04-06 He placed hand in bossom   He took out             was leprous
Ex04-07 He returned hand to bossom He took out from Bossom was cured
Differs *1                         *2                      *3
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Rashi comments
--------------------------------------------------------
NOtice difference *2: HE TOOK OUT vs HE TOOK OUT FROM BOSSOM
The alignment suggests the following nuance: AS SOON AS HE
took out his hand from his bossom it was cured (Whereas in
the first case the setting of leprosy did not happen immediately
after taking out his hand but after a little while).

We conclude that CURE happens quicker than PUNISHMENT---Gods
good promises come quicker than his bad promises
