VERSE: Nu01-02a

RASHIS COVERED: Nu01-02a Nu01-02c

==================== Nu01-02a =========================

VERY BRIEF SUMMARY
------------------
One of Rashis 6 main techniques is to use
Cross references. These cross referenced
verses illumine the meaning of the original
verses. There are 5 techniques of cross
referencing.

EXAMPLE Nu01-02a
----------------
Nu01-02 states COUNT THE JEWS BY family
Nu01 shows a COUNTING OF JEWS BY tribe
Hence Rashi uses the Technique of OTHER VERSES
to show that FAMILY means TRIBE

EXAMPLE Nu01-02c
----------------
Nu01-02a states COUNT THE JEWS BY HEAD
Ex30-11:16 states that COUNTING must be done
by coins(Instead of counting people we count
their coins...this way we symbolically affirm
that each individual has infinite worth and cannot
be counted)
Ex38-26 states COUNT ONE COIN PER HEAD
Hence Rashi infers that COUNT BY HEADS means
to use the COUNT BY COINS PER HEAD

=================== LIST250a ===========================
 We present a list of verses where
 the meaning of words in one verse are
 illumined by the usage of these words
 in other verses.

 The classical example is the word CALF
 which occurs several times in the
 Torah(eg Gn15-09).

 We know a CALF is a YOUNG OX/BULL
 but we dont know HOW YOUNG. The details
 are gives by Lv09-07d which shows that
 CALFS are 1 year (And this derivation
 is accepted legally)

NOTES
-----
*1 Ex13-20 Jews journeyed from Succoth after Exodus
   Ex12-27 Exodus: Jews go from Raamsayth to Succoth
   Nu33-05 Exodus, Then Raamsayth, THen Succoth

   The point is that Nu33-05 makes it clear that
   there were 3 places
   - Exodus FROM Egypt
   - TO Raamsayth
   - TO Succoth.

   Ex13-20 only mentions 2 of the places
   Ex12-27 makes it sound like they left EGYPT, ie
   they left RAAMSAYTH.

   It is in fact common for places to have multiple
   names. So Nu33-05 illumines that there were 3
   distinct places

*2 Also see Ex30-11:16 which prohibits DIRECTLY
   counting people. Instead, we must count the
   COINS of each person and from this infer
   the total count.
