RASHIS COVERED: Lv15-32a Lv15-32b Lv15-33a
Lv15-05a Lv15-06a Lv15-09a
========================== Lv15-32a ============================
SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
The FORMATTING rule seeks to explain Rashis based on
the FORMATTING of the Biblical text. FORMATTING techniques
in modern writing include use of bold, italics,underline,
bullets, paragraph indentation and similar items. The Bible
indicated FORMATTING using its own techniques: For example
- the Bible indicates bold,italics, underline thru REPETITION
- the Bible indicates bulleting, thru REPEATING keywords
The Bible can also indicate formatting thru meaning without
any formal structure.
EXAMPLE 1:Lv15-32a Lv15-32b Lv15-33a
-------------------------------------
The Biblical chapter Lv15
has the following clear
paragraph structure:
----------------------------------------------------------
# VERSE TOPIC OF PARAGRAPH
-- -------------- ----------------------------------------
A: Lv15-01:15 man with a discharge(the Zav)
B: Lv15-16:18 man with a seminal discharge
C: Lv15-19:24 woman with blood flow(Niddah)
D: Lv15-25:31 woman with excessive bloodflow discharge
(Zavah)
----------------------------------------------------------
The end of the chapter has a SUMMARY
in verses Lv15-32:33
Rashi correlates the summary with the
paragraph items above. Here Rashi uses
the PARAGRAPH FORMAT RULE.
---------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY STATEMENT CORRESPONDS TO ITEM IN VERSES
------------------ -------------------- -----------
Laws of discharge General topic Lv15
Seminal Discharge B Lv15-16:18
Menstrual flows C Lv15-19:24
Excessive flows A,D Lv15-01:15
Sleep with above B,C Lv15-16:24
NOTE: Sleeping is mentioned in TWO paragraphs
and hence the Bible singles it out at the end
because of the hybrid relationship.

LIST107y below summarizes this Rashi comment.
EXAMPLE 2: Lv15-05a Lv15-06a Lv15-09a
-------------------------------------
The Biblical chapter
Lv15-01:10
has the following
structure.
---------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION VERSES CONTENT
---------- ---------- -----------------------------------------
SECTION A: Lv15-01:03 Overview: People who have discharges
---------- ---------- -----------------------------------------
SECTION B1 Lv15-04:05 Transfers impurity by SLEEPING on bed
SECTION B2 Lv15-06 Transfers impurity by SITTING on chair
SECTION B3 Lv15-07 Transfers impurity by being TOUCHED
SECTION B4 Lv15-08 Transfers impurity by SPITTING
SECTION B5 Lv15-09:10 Transfers impurity by RIDING
SECTION B6 Lv15-10 Transfers impurity by CARRYING
SECTION B7 Lv15-11 Transfers impurity by TOUCHING
---------- ---------- -----------------------------------------
SECTION C: Lv15-13:15 Purification procedure
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Rashi comments below use the fact that a BULLETED LIST
of items is intended to be a LIST OF DISTINCT ITEMS.
Rashi comments
--------------------------------------------------------
SITTING TOUCHING and RIDING are distinct. For example if
you SIT on a chair with multi-level covers you have not
touched. Similarly you can RIDE an animal without SITTING
--------------------------------------------------------
LIST107z belows summarizes this Rashi comment.
Rashis other comment has to do with the difference
between the SLEEPING/SITTING and OTHER items in the list
above of METHODS OF TRANSFERRING UNCLEANESS(B items)
-------------------------------------------------------
VERSE ACT of DISCHARGER Purification
--------- -------------------------- -----------------
Lv15-07 Someone TOUCHES discharger Immerses in water
Lv15-08 Discharger SPITS: Immerse in water
--------- -------------------------- -----------------
Lv15-04:06 Discharger LIES/SITS
Lv15-04:06 Someone else sits on seat Immerse in water
-------------------------------------------------------
Rashi comments on the extra verse with the LIE/SIT
--------------------------------------------------
In the other TRANSFER METHODS the discharger
came in contact with a PERSON who then had
to immerse in water. The contact could be
through SPITTING or TOUCHING or other methods
of TRANSFER. But in the LIEING and SITTING
transfer methods the discharger confers
impurity on an OBJECT--the seat or bed. A person
touching the SEAT or BED is also impure. Thus
SITTING and LIEING have greater EFFECT OF
TRANSFER since they can transfer to OBJECTS
as well as people
---------------------------------------------------
Rashi's comment was derived from the lack of
parallel in the list of items--the SITTER/LIER
had extra comments which reflect extra laws.
LIST108a below summarizes this Rashi comment.
LIST107z below summarizes this argument.
