VERSE: Gn46-04a

=============== OTHER VERSES CLARIFY ============================

REFERENCE
---------
http://www.Rashiyomi.com/other-20.htm

BACKGROUND
----------
Rashi frequently explains verses using nuances from OTHER VERSES
In the above URL we have examined 6 methods of using OTHER VERSES


THE LIST
--------
This list comes from the above URL with the new entry from
Gn46-04a listed at the bottom. This LIST illustrates
METHOD 3 of OTHER VERSES. In METHOD 3 of other verses
we CLARIFY A VERSE WITH MORE DETAILS FROM AN ANOTHER VERSE.

EXAMPLE
-------
In Gn46-04 God promises to help JACOB come back to Israel
But we read in Gn49 that Jacob died in Egypt? Rashi
explains clarifies with the aid of another verse that
GOD HELPED JACOB COME BACK TO ISRAEL--FOR HIS BURIAL.
Thus the other verse added a detail to the present verse.

Here is the LIST. The OTHER column refers to the OTHER
VERSE. The # column refers to the member of the OTHER
series on the Rashi calendar that contains that example
For example http://www.Rashiyomi.Com/other-22.htm contains
Lv01-05a as an example.

NOTES
-----
*1 1Ch2-18:19 mentions explicitly that Chur was Kalevs son.
   1Ch2-18:19 also speaks about a man marrying somebody who
   gave birth to his wife! Rashi in Chronicles suggests the
   reasonable interpretation that the mother died on the
   operating table and the father named his new daughter
   after his deceased wife (Hence his wife gave birth >to
   his wife< since she had the same name).

   Chazal give a more homiletic interpretation that Kalev
   was married to Miryam who was considered dead since she
   was leprous. Since Kalev nursed her back to health and
   stayed with her he is considered as if he >RENEWED HER
   LIFE< and gave birth to her.

   Since Rashi on Chronicles contradicts Rashi on Chumash
   I assume he didnt fully accept the Midrash that Miryam
   was Churs mother. Nevertheless Rashi cited it to show
   the broad spectrum of interpretation (Rashi will sometimes
   cite one explanation and let teachers pave thru the other
   explanations). On the Chronicle verse there are 5
   alternative explanations.

   Be that as it may everyone agrees that the driving force
   behind Rashi is the OTHER VERSE.

*2 As mentioned earlier this type of example is the basis
   of the Passover Hagaddah. Cross referencing is the most
   basic type of research but nevertheless can be done by
   everybody. Such research would enable a proliferation of
   Torah scholars.

*3 The Malbim cites Ex32-27:28. Rashi cites Ex20-03. So Levi
   both listened to Gods will not to worship idols as well
   as to Moses order to kill relatives.

*4 This example properly belongs in te Rabbi Ishmael series
   on contradictory verses. In this case we resolve the
   two contradictory verses using the method of MODALITY.

   It is INITIALLY required to offer OXEN, LAMBS and GOATS
   as described in Nu28-19. However if you say only had
   OXEN then you shouldn't say >Since I cant bring all of
   them together I will not bring any of them<. Rather
   you should follow the law in Lv23-08 that says >OFFER
   TO THE FIRE< (In other words >OFFER WHATEVER YOU CAN<)

*5 The point here is that Dt07-23:24 is stated in a CLIMACTIC
   manner:
   --God will give you the >NATIONS<
   --God will give you their >KINGS<
   --You will erase their >NATIONAL NAME<
   --There will be >NO SURVIVORS<
   (The principle of CLIMAX demands that the last phrase be
   interpreted to refer to SURVIVORS even though it literally
   only says >No man will stand before you< which could have
   many meanings)

   Once we learn that >no man will stand before you< refers
   to >survivors< (because of the principle of CLIMAX) we
   then transfer that translation to Dt11-25a.

*6 Thus the Korach rebellion gives details on HOW ANGRY God
   would get if the Levites or Priests had their jobs inteferred
   with

*7 THe exact same phrase >Because Abraham obeyed my voiceI will sanctify myself with WEIGHT< while
   Lv10-03 says >I will sanctify myself with those CLOSE to me<
   The 2 verses and the incident that happened---that Aaron the
   High Priests sons died because they did something improper
   shows that God rules by Justice without favoritism to close
   ones. This makes people appreciate Gods honor and weight and
   respect him more

*9 God, in Gn46-04 promises to
   - be with Jacob as he goes from Canaan to Egypt
   - raise Jacob from Egypt to Canaan
   But we find that Jacob died in Egypt and never went back
   up to Canaan? An OTHER VERSE (Gn50-13) clarifies HOW
   GOD HELPED JACOB TO BACK FROM EGYPT TO CANAAN. God helped
   bring Jacob back to Canaan FOR HIS BURIAL!!
