VERSE: Ex14-28a
RASHIS COVERED: Ex14-28a Gn31-13a Gn36-24a Lv07-16b Ex16-06c
============= THE GRAMMATICAL RULE OF EXTRA LETTERS =============
To understand how this LIST is constructed we use Gn36-24a
as an example. The verse Gn36-24 LITERALLY translates as
----------------------------------------------
These are the children of Tzivon AND Aya & Ana
----------------------------------------------
Notice how the CAPPED word, AND, appears totally out of
place and distorts the cohesiveness of the verse.
Rashi suggests as a remedy that we simply regard
this word, AND, as extra. Hence the sentence translates
---------------------------------------------------
These are the children of Tzivon: #Aya & Ana
---------------------------------------------------
The pound sign (#) indicates the place of the missing
word AND (Note how in Hebrew the word AND is represented
by a single letter)
A similar approach applies to the other verses
