VERSE: Ex21-26z

===================== Ex21-26z ================================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
Rashi frequently infers conclusions from the OVERALL
PARAGRAPH structure and its development style

EXAMPLE Ex21-12:25
------------------
The torah deals throughout with PENALTIES for damages.
The Torah lists 4 types of damages
- Murder
- Wounding
- Taking someone as a slave
- Cursing

The Torah lists 4 types of recipients of the damage
- A Parent
- A Free Man
- A Foetus
- A slave

Using these two dimensions of damages we can
understand various distinctions
- Even WOUNDING/CURSING a PARENT carries a death penalty
- KILLING ones own slave (under certain circumstances)
carries no penalty.
- Wounding a free man requires monetary compensation
while wounding a slave requires giving him his freedom

The development of the DAMAGE theme over these two dimensions
is particularly elegant!

========== ========== ======== =====================
Ex21-12:14 Take LIFE  Free Man Death Penalty
Ex21-22:25 Take LIFE  Foetus   Monetary compensation
Ex21-20:21 Take LIFE  Slave    No Penalty*1

---------  --------   -------  ---------------
Ex21-15:17 CURSE      Parent   Death Penalty
Ex21-15:17 Make SLAVE Free man Death Penalty

NOTES
-----
*1 There are more requirements here in order
   for the master to receive no penalty
   for murdering his slave. The master
   - had to intend to only hit the slave
   - the blow had to be with a non-lethal object
   - the slave survived 24 hours etc.
   We however summarized this succinctly for
   purposes of this list.

*2 Rashi points out that the reference must be
   to a non-jewish slave (Since Jewish slaves
   dont have the status of Property and have
   rights of ownership (They can be paid for
   damages)
