SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
Rashi frequently makes powerful inferences from the alignment
of ALMOST similar verses. The minor variations between these
almost similar verses suggests nuances and differences or
even meaning. We call this the Rashi rule of ALIGNMENT
When Rashi identifies two cases from the ALIGNMENT we call
this the Rashi subrule of TWO CASES
When Rashi infers nuances from the variations betweent the
almost similar verses we call this the Rashi subrule of
NUANCES.
When Rashi infers MEANING from the ALIGNMENT of almost
identical phrases we call this the Rashi SUBRULE of MEANING.
LIST343r below summarizes this alignment.
In the next example we have an alignment which
clearly shows TWO CASES that contrast each other.
More specifically Lv07-24a states
----------------------------------------------
the FAT of carcasses will be used for WORK
- - - - - - - but can not be EATEN
----------------------------------------------
From the contrasting alignment we infer that
- a person may BENEFIT from FAT carcass(as long
as they dont eat it)
- FAT CARCASS does not confer ritual impurity
(Otherwise it could not be used for temple work)
