WORD MEANINGS


EXAMPLE: Lv21-20f YALEFET is a type of skin disease
EXAMPLE: Dt28-27c CHERES is a type of itching skin disease

TODAYS RASHI RULE:       WORD MEANINGS
TODAYS RASHI SUBRULE:    ALL ASPECTS

The first 2 units of this section dealing with Biblical words
for skin diseases may be found at
http://www.rashiyomi.com/add-59.htm.
http://www.RashiYomi.com/add-60.htm

We continue with
our revu of words referring to skin diseases such as psoraisis
Eczema boils hemmoroids etc. This revu is completed today
WORD TRANSLATION ROOT MEANING ROOT-TRANSLATION
cherese*4 psoraisis*4 clay*4 scratching utensil*4
yalefeth*5 psoraisis*5 entangled*5 entangled*5
COMMENTS
*4 We can use 3 techniques here.

   INFERENCE FROM A VERSE
   ----------------------
   Dt28-27 states that GOD STRIKES WITH EGYPTIAN BOILS
           WITH HEMORROIDS GARAV AND CHERES THAT CANT
           BE HEALED

   Thus the context shows that CHERES means a DISEASE,
   probably a skin disease

   INFERENCE FROM ROOTS
   --------------------
   Cheres means CLAY UTENSILS or CLAY FRAGMENTS. CLAY
   because of its soft nature was frequently used to
   SCRATCH. Thus the root CHERES refers to the SUBSTANCE
   used for SCRATCHING. Thus CHERES would probably refer
   to a PSORAISIS like condition where there was itching

   NAMING BY SUBSTANCE
   -------------------
   At http://www.RashiYomi.com/naming-8.htm we give several
   examples of items named by SUBSTANCE, what they are made
   of. For example
   ------------------------------------------------------
   GLASSES  What you see with
   LINOLEUM A type of floor
   IRON     A type of garment fixing device
   CHERES   What you scratch with
   ------------------------------------------------------

   We can also infer from the OTHER VERSE Ex09-09 that
   EGYPTIAN BOILS can be DRY INSIDE BUT PUSSY OUTSIDE
   (In the main posting I cite the talmud & show how
   it infers the dryness symptoms of these skin diseases
   in skin and on surface)

*5 The proper procedure here is to identify what is
   clear and what is not clear. We first use the
   technique of VERSE INFERENCE

   VERSE INFERENCES
   ------------------------------------------------
   Ex09-09 the EGYPTIANS received a plague of BOILS
           that sprout PUSS

   Dt28-27 God will strike with EGYPTIAN BOILS with
           GARAV and CHARES

   Lv21-20 If a person has a GARAV or YALEFETH
   ------------------------------------------------

   The net effect of the above 3 verses is that YALEFETH
   is probably like GARAV which appears to be like
   EGYPTIAN BOILS which is a PSORAISIS condition.


   ROOT INFERENCE
   --------------
   The root of YALEFETH is not clear. I would suggest it
   comes from Lamed-Pay-Tauv which means to DOUBLE OVER
   or to get ENTANGLED as in
   -------------------------------------------
   Ju16-29 Samson ENTANGLED his arms on the pillars
   Ruth3-8 The man ENTANGLED when he discovered the woman
   Job6-18 The rivers ENTANGLE their paths
   -------------------------------------------
   Thus YALEFETH would refer to an ENTANGLING DISEASE
   In fact, PsORAISIS (Or Eczema) both have a PERSISTENT
   quality--they come and go but frequently remain for life

   SUMMARY: The analysis by ROOT, is CONJECTUAL. The analysis
   by OTHER VERSES is solid, mainstream and credible. However
   after deriving the meaning from OTHER VERSES we then find
   partial support for the conjectures.
