SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- One of Rashis 10 major methods is to clarify complex logical, algebraic and geometric comments with examples. We call this the Rashi method of SPREADSHEETS. This method equally applies to ANY ILLUSTRATION BY EXAMPLE whether - simple illustrative examples - clarification of algebraic ideas - clarification of geometric ideas - clarification thru spreadsheets EXAMPLE 1: Lv26-08b ------------------- Lv26-08b states ------------------------------------------------ Five of you will pursue 100 [Ratio of 5%] and 100 of you will pursue 10,000 [Ratio of 1%] ------------------------------------------------ Rashi comments -------------------------------------------------- The PURSUAL is not uniform/linear. The more people you have the greater your pursual power. -------------------------------------------------- LIST690a below summarizes these comments and presents other examples where Rashi clarifies algebraic, geometric and complex ideas.

COMMENTS
1 Many people are familiar with the concept of the FORMULA PLUG IN. That is a problem is solved by a formula which you plug into. But some problems intrinsically cannot (initally) be solved by a formula. Instead you have to formulate the problem algebraically and solve;only then do you have the formula. In other words these problems are solved by the EQUATION vs the FORMULA Thus the statement that the eldest gets double suggests the following model. - Suppose the are B brothers - Suppose 1 of them is eldest - The Fathers total assets are T (Total) - Let A be the amount each brother inherits We have no formula for A - Then each of the B-1 brothers obtains A - The eldest obtains double, 2A. - Together this exhausts the Fathers estate, T Hence we have (B-1)A + 2A = (B+1)A = T This gives rise to the formula A = T / (B+1) An example is a father with 100,000 and 4 children - T=100,000 - B=4 - So each child take T/(B+1) = 100000/5 = 20,000 - Eldest takes 220000=40000 - Other 3 take 20000 - Total distribution =320000+40000=100000 See Rambam Inheritance Chapter 2 2 e.g. The father is a non jew from outside Israel He marries a Canaanite women in Israel By law when Israel is conquered she must be killed But the son follows the father, is not considered Canaanite, need not be killed and can be used as a slave byus.
