VERSE: Nu26-10a

====================== Nu26-10a =======================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
One of Rashis 6 main goals is to explain the meaning of
words the same way the dictionary does. Rashi had a variety
of methods to explain word meaning. Sometimes Rashi uses
two verses speaking about the same topic with multiple
words. Rashi is then justified in inferring that these
multiple words all mean (nearly) the same thing

EXAMPLE
-------
Nu26-10a The Fire consumption of 250 Korach rebels was a NAYS
Nu17-03  The remnants from the fire consumption was a SYMBOL
Nu17-05  The remnants from the fire consumption was a MEMORIAL

These OTHER VERSES confirm that NAYS has a meaning of
SYMBOL or MEMORIAL. This is also consistent with the
word NAYS, which means a HIGH BANNER that acts as
a focal point

=================== 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.

*3 Nu17-05 further illumines by calling it a MEMORIAL
   Thus we have SYMBOL MEMORIAL BANNER.

   Since NAYS means BANNER it refers to anything
   that ATTRACTS attention such as SYMBOLS or
   MIRACLES
