RABBI ISHMAEL'S 13 EXAMPLE RULES
--------------------------------
Recall that we just showed that the principle of CLIMAX is
really an example of the Rabbi Ishmael GENERAL-DETAIL
style. This rule demands seeing details as examples which
should be generalized.

EXAMPLE: Dt25-04 Dont muzzle an OX while it is THRESHING
         RASHI: Dont muzzle ANY ANIMAL while it is WORKING

We therefore spent 3 issues on Biblical
examples which are generalized. We now spend
3 issues on Biblical examples that are specific and
should not be generalized.



We will then be able to summarize these 6 issues as
well as all the examples on Climax into a set of rules
which deal with how Biblical EXAMPLES should be treated.
Along the way we will clarify and classify the many
CLIMAX examples that we have done.

In these 3 issues we deal with Biblical EXAMPLES which
should be specific

VERSE:  Ex01-11b
        Lv03-09a
        Lv01-02c


----------------------------------------------------------------
  In the following verses Rashi connects the 2 parts of the
  sentence by inserting the word "THAT IS" thereby indicating
  that ONLY these examples are governed by the law
----------------------------------------------------------------


(82) Ex01-11b The Egyptians placed TAXES on the Jews...:
             (THAT IS) They built cities*2
    RASHI: Thus the taxes consisted of labor to build cities


(82) Lv03-09a Offer Its "fat"--THAT IS The tail


(84) Lv01-02c If you offer sacrifices then offer them from
             the Animals--THAT IS, from Cattle and sheep
    RASHI: Thus the only animals that can be offered for
	sacrifices are cattle and sheep
