VERSE: Gn25-24a

RASHIS COVERED: Gn25-24a Gn25-27d

=========================== Gn25-24a =========================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
Rashi frequently makes powerful inferences from the alignment
of ALMOST similar verses. The minor variations between these
almost similar verses suggests nuances and differences or
even meaning.

EXAMPLE Gn25-24a
----------------
- Gn25-24 Her days for birth were FILLED = 9 month pregnancy
- Gn38-28 At the time of birth = 7 month pregnancy

EXAMPLE Gn25-27d
----------------
- Esauv was a CUNNING OUTDOORSMAN
- Jacob was   SIMPLE

Rashi: Hence we infer that SIMPLE means the opposite of CUNNING
and OUTDOORSMAN.

VERSE     PHRASE1                PHRASE 2
========= ====================== ==========================
Gn25-24a  Her days were filled   for Birth
Gn38-28   At the time            of birth
DIffers   *1                     *2

NOTES
-----
*1 So FILLED probably refers to 9-month gestation while
   AT THAT TIME refers to non-9-month gestation(Eg 7 month)

*2 Both phrases are describing the same thing (BIRTH)

VERSE      Who   was a Phrase1 phrase2
========== ===== ===== ======= ==========================
Gn25-27    Esauv was a cunning outdoorsman
Gn25-27d   Jacob was   simple  Tent Dweller
Differs    *1    *2    *3      *4

NOTES
-----
*1 The two phrases talk about ESAUV vs JACOB

*2 The same in both verses

*3 Rashi is Simple: SIMPLE, by ALIGNMENT, must mean the
   OPPOSITE of CUNNING Thus Rashi besides giving meaning
   is ALSO giving methodology--he is deriving meaning
   from the ALIGNMENT

*4 Clearly OUTDOORS is the OPPOSITE of TENT DWELLER
   This OPPOSITENESS helps confirm the suggested
   OPPOSITENESS mentioned in footnote #3
