Kuph-Tzade has 9 Meanings


BACKGROUND
----------
One of the 6 major functions of Rashi is to provide a Biblical
dictionary -- that is, to list words and all their meanings.

In this module we discuss the root Kuf-Tzade whose fundamental
meaning is END.

TEXT - Gn47-21b
---------------
He moved the whole nation from CORNER TO CORNER

RASHI
-----
CORNER TO CORNER is an idiom meaning EVERYTHING

THE LIST
---------
We
- repeat yesterdays examples where KYTZ means CORNER
- add two more examples where KYTZ means CORNER (or everything)
- add a new usage of KYTZ:LEADERS-the CORNERS of the social order
MEANING Relation to End Verse Sample Text
LEADERS Social-order-end Nu11-01e ..God punished LEADERS*3
CORNERS END OF OBJECT Ex28-23b Attached to the CORNERS
CORNERS END OF OBJECT Ex25-18d Make them on CORNERS
BORDER*10 END OF OBJECT*11 Ex16-35c Until they came to BORDER
END TO END All parts*5 Gn47-21b from one end to the other
FROM END All parts*5 Gn19-04b ..everybody came
COMMENTS
*3 The social spectrum has two ENDS. Rashi cites two opinions
   -- God destroyed the ENDS of the camp (RASHI: The RIF RAFS)
   -- God destroyed the ENDS of the camp (RASHI: The LEADERS)
   I think the idea of a SOCIAL LINE is well understood and
   neednt have further comment

*5 END (TO END) is an idiom denoting THE WHOLE LAND.Thus Gn19-04
   ------------------------------------------
   The sedomites gather around the house
   ALL THE CITY FROM THE END(i.e. everybody)
   ------------------------------------------
   Rashi further explains on Gn19-04b that
   -- CITY FROM THE END means EVERYBODY without exception
   -- ALL THE CITY means there were no LEADERS protesting
   their intended rape behavior


*10 For those into Briskian methods:
    -- the CORNER is ZERO dimensional
    -- the BORDER is ONE/TWO dimensional
    They are both the END of the object
    Neat?! Huh?!

*11 Rashi notes a contradiction in the verse
   --------------------------------------------------------
   - They ate the Manna until they came to INHABITED LAND
   - they ate the Manna until they came to its BORDERS
   --------------------------------------------------------
   We have fully discussed the method of contradictory
   verses in http://www.RashiYomi.Com/ri-14.htm
   Here we use the method of applying the two verses to two
   times -- thus they RECEIVED the manna till they arrived
   at the border and they ATE the manna till which they
   received at the border till they came to civilized land
