The table below presents presents two contradictory verse sets. Both verse sets speak about the worse locust plague in human history. The underlined words highlight the contradiction. One verse set says the locust plague brought by Moses was the worst while the other verse states the locust plague mentioned by Joel was the worst. Which is it? Was the locust plague in Moses' time the worst or was the locust plague in Joel's time the worst. Rashi simply resolves this using the 2 Aspects method: The locust plague brought by Moses was the worst single-species locust plague in human history. The locust plague mentioned by Joel was the worst multiple-species locust plague in human history.

The locust plague in Moses' time was the worst in human history.	Ex10-14a	And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt; very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
The locust plague in Joel's time was the worst in human history.	Yo01-02:04	Hear this, you old men, and give ear, all you inhabitants of the land. Has such a thing been in your days, or even in the days of your fathers? Tell you your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation. That which the cutting locust has left, the swarming locust has eaten; which the swarming locust has left, the hopping locust has eaten; and that which the hopping locust has left, the destroying locust has eaten.
Resolution:	Two aspects	The locust plague brought by Moses was the worst single-species locust plague in human history. The locust plague mentioned by Joel was the worst multiple-species locust plague in human history. [This resolution is explicitly hinted at by the verse as indicated by the underlined words]
