But how do we educate young children--how do we build them up to become Gedolim. The Hagaddah is very clear---the basic education technique exhibited in the Hagaddah is CROSS REFERENCE. You show a child or Gadol one verse and ask them for another verse with the same theme. The entire AN ARAMEAN DEPRIVED MY FATHER OF A JOB section of the Hagaddah is filled with cross references Several examples of this basic CROSS REFERENCE technique occur in Dt16 - Dt16-01b Egypt salvation at night cross references - Ex13-31a Pharoh got up at night*1 - Dt16-02a Pesach offering from HERDS cross references - Ex12-03:05 Passover from SHEEP,GOATS*2 - Dt16-03b Because you left hastily cross references - Ex12-39 Matzoh not bread due to haste TODAYS EXAMPLE -------------- Nu08-08 says to take 2 oxen: - one for a sin offering - one for ??(It doesnt say) Nu08-12 however says - one for a sin offering - one for an up offering Thus Rashi clarifies the missing information in Nu08-08 using Nu08-12 ====================================================== ITEM DETAIL ======================== ============================= RASHI RULE CLASS: OTHER VERSES RASHI SUBRULE CLASS FURTHER DETAILS RASHI WORKBOOK PRINCIPLE #1 SEE BELOW LIST215a List of cross references giving further details ====================================================== ======================== LIST215a ============================== We compactly present a list of verses (VERSE 1) whose meanings is clarified with further detail by VERSE 2 ================================================================= VERSE-1 Text of Verse1 VERSE-2 Details added ======== ======================== ========= ==================== Lv01-05a Slaughter Sacrifice 2Chr30-17 A Levite Can Dt26-05d A FEW Jews came to Egypt Gn46-27 70 people came Nu36-08a A daughter who inherits Nu27-08 If no son Gn21-23b I treated you nicely Gn20-15 I gave you land Dt33-09a Didnt know parents*1 Ex32-25:28 Killed Relatives Dt33-09b He obeyed orders*1 Ex32-27:28 kill relatives Dt25-13b Dont have big stones Lv19-36 Big stone weights Nu01-53a Watch temple so no anger Nu16,17*2 Korach rebellion Gn26-05e because ABRAHAM OBEYED Gn22-18*3 He offered Isaac Lv10-03a Rligious death snctifies Ex29-43*4 Justice Emphasis Nu08-08a Bring 2 oxen offerings Nu08-12 a)Up 2)Sin offrng NOTES ----- *1 The Malbim cites Ex32-27:28. Rashi cites Ex20-03. So Levi both listened to Gods will not to worship idols as well as to Moses order to kill relatives. *2 Thus the Korach rebellion gives details on HOW ANGRY God would get if the Levites or Priests had their jobs inteferred with *3 THe exact same phrase >Because Abraham obeyed my voiceVolume 18 Number 3I will sanctify myself with WEIGHT< while Lv10-03 says >I will sanctify myself with those CLOSE to me< The 2 verses and the incident that happened---that Aaron the High Priests sons died because they did something improper shows that God rules by Justice without favoritism to close ones. This makes people appreciate Gods honor and weight and respect him more ================================================================ --------------------------------------------------- WARNING: The following additional references may be too wordy However they frequently contain additional information & lists The hyperlinks only work on the main website Volume 18 Number 3 #*#*#*#*# (C) 2001, RashiYomi Inc.
