VERSE: Ex19-03c

RASHIS COVERED: Ex19-03c Ex19-03d

========================== Ex19-03c ==================================

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 Ex19-03
--------------------------------------
In Ex19-03 Moses is commanded to teach
the Jews the Torah. The Biblical text reads
-------------------------------------------
Ex19-03c chat     to the    households
Ex19-03d confront to the    Jews
Differs  *1       *2        *3
-------------------------------------------

Notice the 3 aligned phrases:

*1 The root
   - ALEPH-MEM-RESH means BRANCH and
     connotes a BRANCH of thought
     It has a connotation of giving
     over intuitive ideas and basic
     principles

   - NUN-GIMEL-DALETH means OPPOSITE
   and as in English can refer to
   OPPOSING CONFRONTATIONAL IDEAS

*2 This phrase is the same in
   both verses

*3 HOUSEHOLDS vs JEWS has a connotation of
   - HOUSEHOLDS: wives, children
   - JEWS: Men-leaders of the community

   So the leaders were told confrontational
   issues while the women and children
   were told basic ideas

LIST308n below summarizes Moses punishment and cure and
the Biblical phrases used to describe them.

NOTES
-----
*1 The root
   - ALEPH-MEM-RESH means BRANCH and
     connotes a BRANCH of thought
     Hence AMR has a connotation of
     presenting basic intuitive ideas

   - NUN-GIMEL-DALETH means OPPOSITE
   and as in English can refer to
   OPPOSING CONFRONTATIONAL IDEAS

*2 This phrase is the same in
   both verses

*3 HOUSEHOLDS vs JEWS has a connotation of
   - HOUSEHOLDS: wives, children
   - JEWS: Men-leaders of the community

   So the leaders were told confrontational
   issues while the women and children
   were told basic ideas

-------------------- LONGER FOOTNOTES ----------------------

*10 Rashi translates this as WOMEN but I suggest that
    households more broadly refers to WOMEN and CHILDREN
