VERSE: Lv01-04c

======================= Lv01-04c ================================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
Rashi will frequentlly make a comment by making broad
database inquiries. A database inquiry is simply a question
addressed to a large databank---typically a large collection
of verses. Thus DATABASE methods typically span many diverse
verses.

EXAMPLE Lv01-04c
----------------
Today we ask the query
----------------------------------
Which sins does each temple
offering atone for?
----------------------------------

The query uncovers the following
----------------------------------------
SIN offerings atone for inadvertent violation of neg prohibitions
GUILT offerings atone for false oaths and testimony withold
GUILT offerings also atone for descecration of holies
THANKSGIVING offerings give thanksgiving
------------------------------------------

All that we are told about UP offerings (Lv01-04a) is
-----------------------------------
it will be pleasing to atone for him
-----------------------------------

Rashi therefore suggests that the UP offering
atones on inadvertent violations of POSITIVE commandments
(DOs vs DONTS). The reason for this Rashi comment is
because atonement for POSITIVE commandments is not
mentioned in the list.
