SUCCINCT SUMMARY ---------------- The traditional approach to Rashi emphasizes - word meaning - grammar - dealing with problems and anomalies such as extra words. In this list we have also advocated skillful use of FORMATTING style. For example we suggest that repeated keywords are the modern equivalant of BULLETS. A repeated Keyword is heard the same way a modern reader hears a list of bullets. We call this the Rashi rule of BULLETS with the Rashi subrule of KEYWORDS AS BULLETS EXAMPLE - Nu20-15b ------------------ The Biblical text states as follows ---------------------------------------------------------- The Egyptians were bad - TO us - TO our fathers ---------------------------------------------------------- Here the KEYWORD, TO, acts as a bullet. Rashi comments ----------------------------------------------------------- Just as - we suffered in Egypt, so too - out fathers suffered on their death bed since they prophetically knew of the suffering that would happen to us. ----------------------------------------------------------- LIST120b summarizes this argument. | ||

*10 Rashi's actual language is ------------------------------------------------ When the children are tortured the Fathers suffer in the grave ------------------------------------------------ Rashi of course is using the Aggadic techniqe of Exaggeration. A more serious approach is to simply say that ---------------------------------------- The father's suffer when the children suffer. This applies even if the children are not currently suffering and the parents know about the suffering through prophecy ----------------------------------------- | |||
