VERSE: Gn50-18a

==================== ALSO has 3 Usages ===========================

REFERENCE:
----------
http://www.RashiYomi.com/gam-9.htm
http://www.RashiYomi.Com/words.htm

BACKGROUND
----------
In the above URL we analyze the Hebrew word GAM which means
ALSO. ALSO indicates something EXTRA. It can be used in 3 ways
        (a) an extra object of a verb or
        (b) a derived object or
        (c) the same relational structure.
We repeat here the list of places where GAM means an EXTRA OBJECT
We add Gn50-18a to the bottom of the list.

THE LIST
--------
The LIST is a bit compact but probably can be understood with
a little bit of thought. For example the first row states that
in Ex19-22a (THE VERSE) the Bible states that THE PRIESTS ALSO
WILL SEPARATE (THE TEXT). The last column indicates that the
word ALSO here extends to the FIRSTBORN (In other words THE
PRIESTS WILL SEPARATE and THE FIRSTBORN ALSO). Please see the
verse for more details.

THE NEW ADDITION
----------------
Gn50-18a states that JOSEPHS BROTHERS ALSO ASKED FORGIVENESS FROM
HIM FOR TRYING TO MURDER HIM. The word ALSO echoes back to
Gn50-16---initially the brothers sent MESSENGERS TO ASK FOR
MERCY. Then they ALSO asked for mercy.
==================================================================
VERSE    THEME           TEXT              ALSO
======== ==============  ================  =======================
Ex19-22a Extra Object    Priests separate  FirstBorn separate
Ex06-04a Extra Object    Vision of SHTAI   Treaty of Shatai
Ex12-31b Extra Object    You leave         Elders leave
Ex18-18b Extra Object    You will wither   Elders will wither
Dt12-31  Extra Object    Offer Children    Offer parents
Dt26-13c Extra Object    Give MAASER       Give Teruma
Gn42-28a Extra Object    Money in suitcase Wheat in suitcase*2
Gn44-22a Extra Object    Ben ALSO will die Joe,Rachel died*3
Gn50-18a Extra Object    Brothers ALSO ask Besides MESSENGERS*4

NOTES
-----
*2 Added Dec 28 2000

*3 Added Dec 13, 2001. Note the implication that
   - Rachel died while on a trip Gn35-18
   - Joseph was mugged on a trip Gn37-12:16
   Hence Jacob was worried that Benjamin would ALSO
   come to an ACCIDENT

*4 Added Dec 25, 2001.
   - Gn50-16 states THE BROTHERS SENT MESSENGERS TO JOSEPH
                    TO ASK FOR MERCY ON THEM

   - Gn50-18 states THE BROTHERS ALSO ASKED FOR MERCY

   Thus the ALSO refers to BOTH the BROTHERS & MESSENGERS
   See http://www.RashiYomi.Com/gn50-16a.htm for more details
