VERSE: Ex30-21a

RASHIS COVERED: Ex30-21a Ex30-23c Ex30-23e

============================ Ex30-21a ===================

VERY BRIEF SUMMARY
------------------
One of Rashis 6 main methods is the interpretation
of special Biblical queues as indicating such
modern typing methods as bullets, bolds, paragraphing
etc.

The Biblical Author did not use BULLETS. Instead when
a bullet effect is to be created, the Bible repeats
a keyword.

EXAMPLE: Ex30-23
-----------------
Thus Ex30-23 exhibits the following contrast

-- KINMAN is brought in HALF UNITS of 250
-- KNEY-- is brought in ---- UNITS OF 250

This blatant contrast suggests that 250 units of KNEY are
brought while 500 units of KINMAN are brought.*1 *2


EXAMPLE: Ex30-20:21
-------------------
The bullets create a repetition effect and emphasize
two stanzas thus indicating two separate capital crimes

-- when they come to the temple they wash or die
-- when they come to the altar they wash or die*3

Thus a priest who EITHER comes into the temple or
who serves on the altar without washing is liable
to death at the hands of heaven.

Ex30-20:21               2 causes of death bulleted

NOTES
-----
*1 We could also classify this using the ALIGNMENT METHOD
   (TWO CASES). In reality all 2 case alignments are
   examples of BULLETING. The contrast created by the
   bullets implies two cases

*2 The Talmud FURTHER explains why KINMAN is brought
   in half units (Rather than whole units). (Roughly,
   more precision is achieved when weighing two halves)

*3 It would be punchier if EACH BULLET
   corresponded to ONE VERSE. However,
   the second bullet is broken up over 2 verses
   Thus this example could belong to our
   multi-verse sentence series.
===================================================

================ LIST102a ==================

We exhibit the bullet structure of Ex30-23
showing two methods of bringing perfume
The contrast implies that the total KINMAN
brought is 500
============================================
PERFUME TYPE UNITS USED  AMOUNG PER UNIT
============ =========== ===================
KINMAN BOSEM HALF UNITS  250
KNEY   BOSEM             250
============================================

=============== LIST103a ====================

We exhibit the bullet structure of Ex30-20:21
This bullet structure clearly emphasizes 2
capital crimes
=============================================
PRIEST ACTIVITY              REQUIREMENT*2
============================ ================
When they ENTER the temple   Wash
When they SERVE on the altar Wash *1

NOTES
-----
*1 As mentioned above, this bulleted
   structure would be clearer if verses 20
   and 21 were combined

*2 If this requirement is not met there
   is a death penalty at the hands of
   heaven.
