VERSE: Gn32-13b


RULE
====
Rashi will sometimes explain a verse using the technique
of >OTHER VERSES<.  In particular when the Bible says
>AS SO & SO SAID< Rashi will frequently give the verse
where this is SAID. This is called the technique of
CROSS REFERENCING.

The following LIST of examples may be found at the URL
http://www.RashiYomi.Com/other-20.htm



{LIST}
METHOD 1: CROSS REFERENCING CITATIONS--Here is an example
----------------------------------------------------------
Dt26-18a says >And God SAID He will make you a TREASURED NATION<
Rashis cites Ex19-05 where it says >& you'll be to me TREASURED<
Thus Rashi is confirming the CITATION.

The verses in this example always have the words >AS IT SAYS<
and thus require a cross reference. The examples in the table
below refer to the series named >OTHER< which you can find on
the Rashi Yomi Calendar (http://www.RashiYomi.Com/calendar.htm)
================================================================
EXAMPLE #   VERSE     TEXT OF VERSE              VERSE:
Refers to   Book      The actual verse concludes This verse
Example #s  Chapter   >AS IT SAYS< which         confirms the
in Rashi    Verse     requires cross referencing cross

========== ========  ========================== ==============
EXAMPLE 9  Dt19-08a  God will give us more land Gn15-19:21
EXAMPLE 7  Dt18-02d  Levites will not inherit   Nu18-20
EXAMPLE 8  Dt26-18a  Jews will be TREASURED     Ex19-05
EXAMPLE 10 Dt26-19a  Jews will be HOLY          Lv20-26
EXAMPLE 18 Gn21-01c  God gave Sarah a child     Gn17-19
EXAMPLE 25 Ex12-25b  God will give us Israel    Ex06-08
{END LIST}




Gn29-13b is unusual in that it uses an ITERATED CROSS
REFERENCE.

Gn28-15 says >I(God) will not desert you(Jacob) till I have
             done WHAT I PROMISED CONCERNING YOU<

We find this PROMISE CONCERNING JACOB in

Gn22-17 >For I will multiply you like the SAND ON THE SEA<



Thus Rashi confirms the cross reference in Gn29-13b which
says >And You (God) promised me(Jacob) to make my
descendants as numerous as the SAND ON THE SEA<. To confirm
the cross reference Rashi must use both verses Gn28-15 and
Gn22-17
