=========================== Ex39-03a ==========================
SUCCINT SUMMARY:
----------------
Rashi sometimes gathers a collection of verses, each with some
numerical attribute, and does an accounting audit using
spreadsheet methods. In the spreadsheet method we also include
- Rashi description of complicated Geometric designs
- Rashi description of multi-step procedures
EXAMPLE Ex38-07a
----------------
The altar is described as HOLLOW BOARDED. Rashi describes
the structure--it was like a HOLLOW BOX
EXAMPLE Ex39-03a
----------------
Rashi describes the 3 step procedure by which threads
were gold twined
- gold was flattened into sheets
- the sheets were cut vertically into threads
- the gold threads were twined with flax and wool threads
EXAMPLE Ex39-31a Ex28-37a
-------------------------
Thru a variety of almost contradictory verses Rashi
describes the complicated geometric design of the
Priestly HeadPlate
- Priest wore a turban on his head
- The HeadPlate was like a mask
- Headplate was on forehead just below turban
- Headplate had 3 sets of azure threads
- 2 threads at end and one in middle
- 2 threads at end tied in back to secure the Headplate
- Thread in middle went over head and tied in back
- Thread in middle held up the HeadPlate
EXAMPLE Ex38-08a
----------------
Thru an audit of the copper used in the temple
for nine items we find that
- 8 of the items were covered by copper donations
- 1 of the items (The basin) was covered by
mirrors of women. Further verses may then be
brought to show that these mirrors were use
to enhance marital intimacy.

NOTES
-----
*1 Donations are mentioned in Ex25-02:08
----------------------- LONGER FOOTNOTES -------------------
*10 Many moral lessons are learned from here. For example,
it is argued that these mirrors were used for purposes
of intimacy enhancement -- this also can be proved
by an alignment--for we find in Ex32-02 that EARINGS
were used for the golden calf but not MIRRORS thus
showing the importance of the mirrors for highly
personal matters. Rashi gives further elaboration
-- eg these mirrors were used by wives to seduce tired men
who werent interested and therefore
they merited to be in the temple.
Bottom line: My goal here is to show the strongest
support for the Rashi--this comes from an auditing.
Whenever we have auditing we frequently have many
more supportive arguments
*11 Rashi also explains various terms used in the verse
For example it speaks about the women STANDING IN
WATCH AT THE TEMPLE thus showing the religious zeal
of the women.
