VERSE: Lv19-23a
RASHIS COVERED: Lv19-23a Dt10-16a Ex06-12a
===================== ARAYL = INACCESSIBLE ======================
VERY BRIEF SUMMARY:
-------------------
The Hebrew root Ayin-Resh-Lamed occurs several times in the
Bible. Rashi identifies its fundamental meaning as UNUSABLE
Thus Rashi consistently explains that
-- ARAYL TREES means trees whose fruit are PROHIBITED
-- ARAYL LIPS means a person who cant TALK
-- ARAYL EARS means a person who doesnt LISTEN
-- ARAYL HEART means a person who doesnt CARE
-- ARAYL can mean POISON--something that renders you unusable
Finally ARAYL can refer to NON-CIRCUMCISION. Rashi explains
that the foreskin makes the organ APPEAR closed up & unusable

TODAYS LIST
-----------
Here is the list of uses of ARAYL. The footnotes justify
that words can be named by appearance.
=================================================================
VERSE WHAT IS ARAL This means the following is UNUSABLE

NOTES
-----
*1 Of course an UNCIRCUMCISED organ is NOT unusable. Rather,
the foreskin makes it appear CLOSED UP and this CLOSED
UP appearance makes it APPEAR unusable.
For the idea that words can extend meaning based on their
FORM or the FORM of their activity we cite the following
list from http://www.RashiYomi.com/naming-8.htm
-----------------------------------------------------------
-The following Candellabrah parts were named by
their FORM--what they looked like.
-Other Rashis (besides from the candellabrah) on naming
by FORM are added to this list
