SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
A powerful but simple Rashi method is the CITATION or CROSS-
REFERENCING of an OTHER VERSE for the purpose of adding
FURTHER DETAILS to a verse we are studying. We call this
the OTHER VERSE method. There are three submethods to the
OTHER VERSE method.

If the verse actually CITES or refers to an OTHER VERSE we
call this the SUBMETHOD of CITATION.

If the OTHER VERSE explains the meaning of
some term in the first verse we call this the SUBMETHOD
of MEANING.

If the first verse does not cite an other verse and if
no meaning is explained then we call this the SUBMETHOD
of FURTHER DETAILS since the 2nd verse either confirms
the first verse or typically adds FURTHER DETAILS to
the first verse

EXAMPLE 1: Gn08-06b
-------------------------------
Gn08-06b states
-------------------------------------
Noach opened the WINDOW of the ark...
-------------------------------------

Rashi explains the capped word WINDOW
by CROSS REFERENCING an OTHER VERSE
discussing the construction of the ark
Gn06-16 states
---------------------------
Make a LIGHT for the ark and
place a DOOR on its side
---------------------------

Rashi explains that the word WINDOW
in Gn08-06b refers back to the LIGHT SOURCE
mentioned in Gn06-16.

EXAMPLE 2: Gn04-04a
-------------------
Gn04-04 states that
--------------------------------
God ACCEPTED Hebel's offering
--------------------------------

Rashi explains the CAPPED word
by citing an OTHER VERSE showing
how God ACCEPTS offerings
Ki18-37:38 discussing the sacrifice
of Elijah on Mount Carmel states
-----------------------------------
states Hear me, O Lord, hear me,
that this people may know that you are the Lord God,
...THEN THE FIRE OF THE LORD FELL AND CONSUMED
THE BURNT SACRIFICE ...
-----------------------------------

Consequently Rashi explains the ACCEPTANCE
of Hebel's sacrifice mentioned in Gn04-04 by
the statement in Ki18-37:38 that GODS FIRE FELL
and CONSUMED THE SACRIFICE.

We further feel justified in interpreting this
symbolically---FIRE OF GOD refers to PROPHECY...
in other words God ACCEPTS sacrifices by rewarding
the offerer with PROPHETIC INSIGHTS.


EXAMPLE 3: Gn14-07c
-------------------
This is a rare case where Rashi EXPLICITLY
IDENTIFIES the Rashi rule he is using.
- Gn14-07c mentions the place ChaTzaTzon TaMaR
- 2C20-02 explicitly identifies ChaTzaTzon TaMar & AyN GeDi
Hence the Rashi
------------------------------------------
The OTHER VERSE in Chronicles explicitly
identifies ChaTzaTzon TaMaR with Ayn GeDi
------------------------------------------

EXAMPLE 4: Gn14-05b
-------------------
Gn14-05b says
-------------------------
...KeDarLaOMeR came and
the KINGS WITH HIM
-------------------------

Rashi explains the CAPPED PHRASE,
------------------------
the KINGS WITH HIM
------------------------
to refer to the 4-KING ALLIANCE
mentioned in the OTHER VERSE Gn14-01
--------------------------------------
The following took place during
the period of
- AmRaFeL, King of Shinar
- ArYoCh, King of Elasar
- KeDarLaOMeR, King of Aylam and
- TiDaL, King of Goyim,
--------------------------------------

Hence the Rashi
-------------------------------
The CAPPED PHRASE
- - - - - - - - - - -
The KINGS WITH HIM
- - - - - - - - - - -
mentioned in Gn14-05b
refers to the other 3 Kings in the
ALLIANCE OF FOUR KINGS mentioned in
the OTHER VERSE, Gn14-01
--------------------------------

EXAMPLE 5: Gn12-06d
-------------------
Gn12-06d speaks about a person named WING-NAME
Rashi clarifies this name using an OTHER VERSE
Gn11-04 states that the generation of the tower
wanted to
----------------------------------------
make a city with a tower in HEAVEN
and we will make a NAME for ourselves...
----------------------------------------
The generation of the Tower sought to create
- visibility (Heaven)
- Societal Name
so that SOCIETY, not GOD, could protect the
individual.

Rashi sees these goals in the name WING-NAME
- WING indicates VISIBILITY, HEAVEN, TOWER-HEIGHTS
- NAME corresponds to the goal of a SOCIETAL-NAME
