*1 Hence the verses
------------------------------------------
Gn08-02b Rain was WITHELD from the heavens
Gn23-06a No person will WITHOLD their land from you
Ex36-06a The nation WITHELD further bringing
--------------------------------------------

*2 Hence the meanings of KNEELING and LIEING DOWN

10* Here is a nifty example. The PENTAGON is named by its
FORM (Looks like a PENTAGON) while the UNITED NATION is
named by its FUNCTION

*1 Rashi supplements this explanation by
citing verses where RKA means to
FLATTEN OUT(eg Isa42-05,P136-07,
2S22-43, Ez06-11,Ex39-03, Nu17-04,
Jr10-09--in all these verses RKA
means to flatten out/crush)

*2 Perhaps the punchiest example is the following
- PENTAGON - named by form
- U.N. ----- named by function

*3 - STATURE is an attribute of HUMANS
- HEIGHT is an attribute of OBJECTS

*1 eg To FIRE a furnace

*2 Ex16-20b

*3 Ex19-12a

*4 Ex28-39a EMBROIDER the pants of LINEN
means make them embroidered

*5 Nu04-13b, Ex27-03b

*6 Lv17-04a

*7 As we have explained it TO DOUGH would mean
to BAKE. Actually we need another step. A verb
can refer to its ACTIVITY FORM. So the 2 steps are
- DOUGH becomes TO DOUGH=to BAKE
- TO DOUGH becomes TO SWELL (form of DOUGH rising)
See LIST814a for more details

*8 Ex05-07a Ex05-07b

*10
We present 3 methods by which OBJECTS (Nouns) acquire
ACTIVITY (verb) meaning
- eg To RECORD = to CREATE a RECORD
- eg To DUST   = to REMOVE dust
- eg To HAMMER = do STANDARD ACTIVITY of hammar

*1 Frequently the words in this list occur only once or
twice in the Bible.

*1 Rashi states the following: "If MOTHERS make mistakes it
is because they raise children; if SINGLE women make
mistakes it is because they try to pick people up"
Rashi should be perceived as giving ILLUSTRATIONS of
why being without children is disgraceful for women

*2 Jacob did not NEED permission to leave with HIS wife
But his father-in-law would perceive it as STEALING
his daughter.

*3 Gn27-41 states that Esauv hated Jacob for stealing the
blessing. Gn27-44 states that after a few years this
hatred would subside. Hence Gn33-09 with its statement
I DONT NEED YOUR MONEY confirms these other 2 verses.

*4 Rashi is NOT commenting on the MERE coincidence that
Shimon and Levi are called BROTHERS in two places.
-Gn49-05 talks about Shimon and Levi KILLING and
PLUNDERING
-Gn34 also talks about SHIMON and Levi KILLING
and plundering.
Thus the cross reference is clear. The accident
that they are called BROTHERS in both places
simply spices up the correspondence.
