RULE
====
The words >THE< can be used in 4 ways


--THE can refer to a proper noun



--THE can refer to something that is mentioned nearby

  eg Dt04-32c >Has anyone heard THE GREAT THING-that God
  saved a nation enslaved in another nation with great miracles<

  Thus the phrase >THE GREAT THING< refers to the verse that
  follows >That God saved a nation enslaved in another nation<



--THE can refer to a concept, story or thing mentioned
  ELSEWHERE (but not immediately afterwards)

  eg Nu13-33a >We saw there THE Nefilim<
  This refers to the NEFILLIM nation mentined in Gn06-04



--THE can refer to the best known of a class

  eg  Dt01-07e >THE Mount< -- This refers to The Kings Mountain

EXAMPLE 65: Ex40-29b
====================
EXAMPLE 66: Ex40-29c
====================

THE VERSE: & he offered on the altar >THE (known)< Elevation
           Offering & >THE (known)< Minchah


THE RASHI: >THE (known)< Offering = The DAILY Offering (Nu28)
           >THE (known)< Minchah  = The Minchah libations
           of the DAILY Offering (Nu28-05)

In other words: >& he offered on it OFFERINGS and MINCHAH<
could mean he offered SOME OFFERING and SOME MINCHAH. By
stating >& he offered on it THE Offering and THE Minchah<
the reference is to to the known DAILY OFFERING.
