VERSE: Lv06-14b

==================== Lv06-14b =========================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
One of Rashis 6 main goals is to explain word
meanings the same way dictionaries explain word
meanings. In explaining the meaning of roots Rashi
very often used a one-letter and two-letter root
theory.

As I have explained numerous times Rashi DID believe
in the Grammatical theory of 3 letter roots as we
know them today. However Rashi held that this
was a theory of ROOT CONJUGATION.

Rashi additionally believed that totally different
sets of roots governed ROOT MEANING (vs ROOT CONJUGATION)

In summary, ROOT MEANING is governed by 2 letter roots
while ROOT CONJUGATION is governed by 3 letter roots

EXAMPLE
-------
T-F-Y-N-A=T+AFH + NA = Well(T) baked(AFH) and roasted(NA)
Hence this Minchah has to be BOTH baked and roasted.

============== LIST910b ===========================================

List of 4 Letter roots in Rashi and their meanings.
The meaning of the list should be clear (eg Gn49-12a
contains the word CChLiLi which means DRUNKEN. The
concept of DRUNKENNESS is clearly related to
SWIRLING (LL) from the PALATE (CCh) activities.
Other rows are interpreted similarly.)

NOTES

*1

------------------ LONGER FOOTNOTES --------------------------

*10 Malbim gives a very thorough analysis of this strange
    word. We list some points:

    10a)
    Malbim explains the PREFIX TAUV as meaning INTENSE
    and gives several examples (This is not necessary however)
    So for example B-A-R means to BURN while TVARAH is
    a sort of BONFIRE (WELL BURNED). Hence, concludes MALBIM,
    the TAUV prefixing this word would indicate WELL BAKED

    10b)
    AFH means BAKED which indicates that this offering
    was BAKED Everyone agrees on this.


    10c) N-A COULD EITHER mean NA (ROASTED RAW) or NAH(NICE)
    So we could infer NICELY BAKED. OR, ROASTED

    10d) The actual law is that it is
    - baked first
    - roasted
    - baked/fried in a frying pan

    Malbim goes into laborious detail on how controversies
    on this emanate from the
    - Tauv of TFYNY
    - Does the N mean NAH or NA

    My goal here however is not to explain the TAUV (which
    need not add explicit meaning as in TPERETH vs PAYR)

    My goal here is to show that TFYNY means BAKED-ROASTED
    and everyone agrees that these two procedures were done
    to it (There is controversy however on ORDER and
    QUANTITY (roast-bake vs bake-roast and how many bakings)
