    4. RASHI METHOD: ALIGNMENT
    BRIEF EXPLANATION: Aligning two almost identically worded verselets can suggest
    • (4a) 2 cases of the same incident or law
    • (4b) emphasis on the nuances of a case
    • (4c) use of broad vs literal usage of words
     This examples applies to Rashis Gn09-03a
    URL Reference: (c) http://www.Rashiyomi.com/rule1311.htm
    Brief Summary: a) ADAM was allowed to eat PLANTS b) NOAH was allowed to eat PLANTS and MEAT

The table below presents an aligned extract of verses or verselets in Gn09-03a, Gn01-29 Both verses/verselets discuss God's allowance of certain foods to Adam/Noah. The alignment justifies the Rashi comment that: God only allowed Adam a strictly vegetarian diet. However God allowed Noah a meat-vegetarian diet.

Gn09-03a
  • Every moving animal that liveth shall be for food for you;
  • as the green herb have I given you all.
God only allowed Adam a strictly vegetarian diet. However God allowed Noah a meat-vegetarian diet.
Gn01-29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, on which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food.
