   Dt25-04a: Dont muzzle an OX:
   RASHI:    Dont muzzle ANY ANIMAL

                       -HERE ARE THE EXAMPLES-

EXAMPLES

    The Bible used 'OX' since that was a typical animal owned

(2) Ex21-17a A FEMALE witch should not be allowed to live
    RASHI: The law applies to ANY witch--male or female
    The Bible used 'FEMALE' witch since most witches were
    women

(3) Ex22-21a If you hurt an ORPHAN or WIDOW I(God)will punish you
    RASHI: God will punish you if you cause anguish to ANY person
    The Torah used 'ORPHAN/WIDOW' since these people are usually
    picked on.


(4) Ex22-30b A DISEASED ANIMAL in a FIELD should not be eaten
    RASHI: ALL DISEASED ANIMALS should not be eaten. The
    Torah used 'diseased animals in a FIELD' because that
    is typically where they are typically found

(5) Dt22-23a '..& he found her IN THE CITY & raped her...'
    RASHI:The laws of rape apply even if he raped her in the
    HOUSE. The Torah used 'in the CITY' because that is where
    rapes typically happen


(6) Dt23-11a 'A man who is Not Pure from a NOCTURNAL emission'
    RASHI: These laws apply to ANYONE who has an emission.
    The Torah used 'NOCTURNAL emission' because that is the
    typical time they occur.


(7) Dt13-07f When someone seduces you IN PRIVATE to worship idols
    RASHI: These laws apply even if the seduction was in public
    The Torah used 'IN PRIVATE' because that is the normal way
    seduction takes place (steathily)

(8) Dt15-19b Don't WORK with 1stborn of OX,
             Don't SHEAR 1stborn SHEEP
    RASHI:It is also prohibited to WORK with the 1stborn of SHEEP
    or to SHEAR the hide of an OX. But the Torah used 'WORK..OX'
    and 'SHEAR..SHEEP' because this is the typical usage.


(9) Dt25-04a Don't muzzle an OX while it works
    RASHI: It is prohibited to muzzle ANY ANIMAL while it works
