GOALS
=====
This module reviews the 10 meanings of the Hebrew root
Shin-Lamed-Chet. The root means TO SEND, TO LET GO, or TO
INCITE, in the ACTIVE, INTENSIVE or CAUSATIVE mode. This
module also affords us an exciting opportunity to see how
the great commentators like Rashi, Radack complement each other.

TODAYS UNIT
===========
Today we present two Rashis commenting on Shlach in
the CAUSATIVE mode where it means TO INCITE.

SH-L-CH has 10 meanings


BACKGROUND
----------
It is well known that Hebrew consists of 3 letter roots. Each
3 letter root is assigned a meaning. These roots can then be
CONJUGATED to indicate such things as PERSON, PLURALITY, GENDER
etc. There are many books which contain rules of conjugation.

THE TEXT
--------
The Hebrew root Shin-Lamed-Chet has 10 meanings. It is natural
to try to group similar meanings together.

THE BASIC RULE
--------------
-- in the ACTIVE MODE, Shlach, means TO SEND
-- in the INTENSIVE MODE, Shlach, means TO LET GO
-- in the CAUSATIVE MODE, Shlach, means to INCITE

THE LIST
--------
Today we bring two examples of SHLACH in the CAUSATIVE mode.
It is interesting that RADACK does NOT interpret these verses
with a special meaning. Rashi however interprets SHLACH in the
causative mode as meaning to INCITE. Here is the list the
footnotes contain details on the controversy.
MODE MEANING CONNECTION VERSE TEXT OF VERSE
CAUSATIVE INCITE INCITE Lv26-22a INCITE animals on them
CAUSATIVE INCITE INCITE Ex08-17a INCITE against them*3
COMMENTS
*11 This translation of SHLACH--to INCITE--
    occurs in Rashi but not in Radack.
    Radack simply interprets this verse as I WILL SEND ANIMALS
    AGAINST THEM. Rashi however adds a nuance by interpreting
    I WILL INCITE ANIMALS AGAINST THEM. We prefer Rashi over
    Radack since Rashis added nuance is connected with the
    causative mode.
