VERSE: Lv26-05a

RASHIS COVERED: Lv26-05a Lv26-05b

==================== Lv26-05a ==============================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
One of Rashis 5 main goals is to indicate paragraph
structure. One method of demonstrating paragraph
structure is to use the DETAIL-THEME style. Another
method is to CLIMATICALLY build up a theme.

EXAMPLE Lv26-05a
----------------
The GENERAL theme of Lv26-04:05 is BLESSING.
This GENERAL theme is climactically developed
as follows
- EXISTENCE: You will HAVE food (Lv26-04)
- QUANTITY:  You will have PLENTY of food
- QUALITY:   The food will be of good QUALITY

This climax sequence -- EXISTENCE-QUANTITY-QUALITY --
helps us appreciate the individual verse segments
Thus the literal Biblical phrase

------------------------------------
The THRESHING-HARVEST-SEEDING will
bump into each other
------------------------------------

is interpreted as a SIGN of

---------------------------
PLENTY OF PRODUCE AND WORK
---------------------------

Similarly the literal Biblical phrase
-----------------------
YOU WILL EAT TO SAIETY
-----------------------

is interpreted (because of the climax sequence) as

---------------------------------
THE FOOD WILL BE OF GOOD QUALITY
---------------------------------

Interpretation        Literal Biblical text        CLIMAX
===================== ============================ =========
You will have food    Land gives produce...        EXISTENCE
You will have plenty  Threshing bumps into harvest QUANTITY
Food,of good quality  You will eat to saiety*1     QUALITY*1

NOTES
-----
*1 Rashi is NOT asserting that YOU WILL EAT TO SAIETY
   must mean FOOD OF GOOD QUALITY. Rather Rashi IS
   asserting that BECAUSE OF THE ASSUMED CLIMACTIC
   DEVELOPMENT, we therefore re-interpret the verse,
   to be consistent with this assumed CLIMACTIC
   DEVELOPMENT. Hence EATING TO SAIETY is reinterpreted
   to refer to mean GOOD QUALITY--the reason for this
   minor reinterpretation is desire for consistency
   with the idea of climactic development.
