===================== Lv19-07a ========================

VERY BRIEF SUMMARY
------------------
Recall that Hebrew consists of Hebrew roots with 3
letters. These roots are conjugated in various forms

Rashi additionally believed in a 2 letter meaning
theory. That is, while GRAMMATICAL CONJUGATION rules
apply to 3 letter roots, nevertheless, MEANING rules
apply to TWO LETTER roots. That is the meaning of
every 3 letter root is derived from the meaning of
its constituent letters.

EXAMPLE
-------
Pay-Gimel-Lamed MEANS Rotted

- Pay according to Rashi MEANS form
- Gimel-Lamed MEANS dung

Hence we have the poetic equation that

- ROT = FORM of DUNG

Cute!
