RASHIS COVERED: Lv07-12c Lv06-14a Lv07-24a


============================== Lv07-12c ========================


SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
Rashi frequently makes powerful inferences from the alignment
of ALMOST similar verses. The minor variations between these
almost similar verses suggests nuances and differences or
even meaning. We call this the Rashi rule of ALIGNMENT

When Rashi infers MEANING from the ALIGNMENT of almost
identical phrases we call this the Rashi SUBRULE of MEANING.

When Rashi identifies two cases from the ALIGNMENT we call
this the Rashi subrule of TWO CASES

EXAMPLE: Types of Baking loafs
-----------------------------
There are 3 sets of verses discussing the types of loafs
that are offering in the REST offering.

Ex29-02 speaks about
--------------------
- Matzoh MIXED with oil
- wafers ANNOINTED with oil

Lv02 speaks about
-----------------
- Matzoh MIXED with oil (Lv02-05)
- wafers ANNOINTED with oil(Lv02-06)
- flour BAKED/ROASTED in oil (Lv02-07:08)

Lv07-12c speaks about
---------------------
- Matzoh MIXED with oil
- Matzoh ANNOINTED with oil
- Flour Mem-Resh-Beth-Caph with oil

Notice how all 3 chapters begin with MIXED-WITH-OIL
and ANNOINTED-WITH-OIL. Consequently we conclude
that Mem-Resh-Beth-Caph with oil means BAKED/ROASTED
in oil. This inference is made from the alignment.

In passing: The biblical root: Resh-Beth-Caph rarely
occurs in the Bible. Hence in this case we actually
infer meaning from the ALIGNMENT. Note that we can
only infer the general idea of baked in oil without
knowing the precise halachic details.

LIST343r below summarizes this alignment.

In the next example we have an alignment which
clearly shows TWO CASES that contrast each other.
More specifically Lv07-24a states

----------------------------------------------
the FAT of carcasses will be used for WORK
-  -   -  -  -  -  - but can not be EATEN
----------------------------------------------

From the contrasting alignment we infer that
- a person may BENEFIT from FAT carcass(as long
  as they dont eat it)
- FAT CARCASS does not confer ritual impurity
  (Otherwise it could not be used for temple work)

LIST313x below summarizes this alignment.

Align Lv07-24a phrases   FAT CARCASS:Eat-no;Use for work-yes
==================================================================
PORTION OF VERSE  TEXT OF VERSE
================= ================================================
FIRST VERSE HALF  the FAT of carcasses WILL BE USED FOR WORK*1
SECOND VERSE HALF -  -   -  -  -  -  - but can not be eaten

NOTES
-----
*1 So carcass fat can be
   -benefitted from as long as you are not eating
   -does not confer ritual impurity (Because otherwise you
    couldnt work with them in the temple)

List of                  3 Loaf types in REST offering
==================================================================
TYPE                       Ex29-02         Lv02-05:08   Lv07-12c
========================== =============== ============ ==========
Matzoh MIXED with oil      Same language   Same         Same
wafers ANNOINTED with oil  Same language   Same         Same
3rd type (See notes*1)     Absent          *1           *1

NOTES
-----
*1 - There is no 3rd type of REST OFFERING mentioned in Ex29-02
   - Lv02-05:08 speaks about FRIED IN PAN // BAKED-ROASTED in POT
   - Lv07-12c speaks about Loaves that are Resh-Beth-Caph.

   Hence we infer from the alignment that the root Resh-Beth-Caph
   means ROASTED/BAKED thoroughly in oil*10 (We can only infer the
   general idea of thorough baking from the alignment--we cannot
   infer specific halachic details)
