BACKGROUND ---------- Gn24-21 is a peach of a verse. Anyone who wants to really know the issues of Biblical study should read this Rashi. On Gn24-21 Rashi takes an innocent phrase -- AND THE MAN WAS ASTONISHED ABOUT HER -- & does a 4 dimensional analysis. Rashi analyzes the verse from the points of - MEANING of the root - IDIOMATIC usage of this meaning - GRAMMATICAL form of the root - use of the CONNECTIVE, to THE TEXT -------- Gn24-21 and the man was ASTONISHED ABOUT this woman THE RASHIS ---------- * The MEANING of the ROOT Shin-Ayin-Hey is DESOLATION * The IDIOMATIC USAGE of DESOLATION is ASTONISHED! * The GRAMMATICAL FORM of this root is the rare HITPAEL+SILIBANT * The CONNECTIVE TO can also mean ABOUT or CONCERNING THE LISTS --------- So Rashi is Simple. He provides 4 lists. A list for MEANING, a list for IDIOM, a list for FORM and a list for CONNECTIVES Below is a List of of Hebrew roots whose first letter is a silibant (Sin, Shin, Samech, Tzade) and which is conjugated in the HITPAEL. Many examples come from Rashi. Other examples comes from Alfred Silbermans Grammatical Form Konkordance. See footnote *1 for details of this rule | ||
