VERSE: Gn48-09a

RULE: The phrase "THIS PLACE" always has a pejorative
connotation. There are surprisingly only a dozen verses
in the Bible with the phrase THIS PLACE*1



EXAMPLES
--------
(1) Gn38-21 "Where is the prostitute that hung out in THIS PLACE"
(2) Nu23-01 "build me in THIS PLACE(the phallic gods of Baal)"
(3) Jud18-03 "What are you doing in THIS PLACE(idolatry)"
(4) 1Sam1-26 I'm the woman standing in THIS PLACE(looking like a drunk)
(5) Gn48-09 These are my children that God gave me in THIS PLACE(Egypt)

    RASHI: He showed his father his marriage contract (in other words
        even though Egypt is a bad place nevertheless I got married
        properly)



NOTES
-----
*1 The main posting examines all verses with THIS PLACE
   About half of them are cited above
