SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
Many Rashis derive their punch from comparisons and alignments
with other verses. Frequently these alignment shed light
on meaning.


EXAMPLE Ex21-09b Ex21-10a Ex21-10b
----------------------------------
- If his son marries her---- she gets the GIRLS-DESERVE
- If his son marries another she gets FOOD,CLOTHING,SEX
Thus we see that the GIRLS-DESERVE refers to the RIGHTS
OF WIVES which includes FOOD, CLOTHING, and SEX.

Alignment of verses with Details of rights of wives
VERSE Activity of son What SlaveGirl is entitled to
Ex21-09b If his son marries her she gets the DESERVED-FOR-GIRLS
Ex21-10a If his son marries two she gets FOOD, CLOTHING, SEX
Details *1 *2
COMMENTS
*1 The exact textual alignment here is as follows
-------------------------------------------------------------
Ex21-09b If the owner of the girl DESIGNATES her for his son
Ex21-10a If he(the son) takes another (wife (Rashi Ex21-10a))
-------------------------------------------------------------

The parenthetical expressions are Rashi-s interpretation
and are derived from the alignment since the two verses
define a context of talking about womens rights EVEN for
a slave-girl and EVEN if the 2nd wife is not a slave*10

*2 Rashi (Ex21-09a) infers from the alignment that
DESERVED-FOR-GIRLS refers to FOOD-CLOTHING-SEX

Rashi (Ex21-10b) identifies (-because of the alignment-)
the SHE in Ex21-10a as referring to the SlaveGirl.
However the real intent of Ex21-10 is ANY SHE (that is,
his 2nd wife OR EVEN his 1st wife-- the slave girl) are
each entitled to FOOD, CLOTHING and SEX.

LONGER FOOTNOTES

*10 This brilliant approach to Rashi -- that Rashi is
emphasizing a wives rights EVEN in extreme cases
-- another wife, a slave --- was developed by Rav
Hirsch who suggested that the Torah TYPICALLY showed
rights by giving EXTREME CASES (So all wives have rights
EVEN if they are slaves etc).
