OVERVIEW:
========
In this module we explore Rashis that derive their
lesson from OTHER VERSES.


There are three basic techniques of Rashi in these
verses.





CROSS REFERENCES THAT CONFIRM
=============================
One basic technique of Rashi in these verses is to
>CONFIRM BIBLICAL CROSS REFERENCE<. Thus the Bible
might say >I GOD PROMISE YOU SUCH AND SUCH AS I
HAVE SAID< and Rashi will then indicate where God
has said this.





CROSS REFERENCES THAT CLARIFY
=============================
A Second basic technique of Rashi in these verses is to
>CLARIFY MEANING IN ONE VERSE BY AN OTHER VERSE<.





CROSS REFERENCES THAT DEFINE
============================
A third technique is where the Bible explicitly says
>DO PROCEDURE X THE SAME WAY I TOLD YOU TO DO PROCEDURE Y<





REFERENCES
==========
Material in this module comes from

        http://www.rashiyomi.com/ov.htm




TODAYS UNIT
===========
We are finally finishing our long journey on Rashis that use
the technique of OTHER VERSES. We shall have our usual
RashiYomiSummary on Sunday or Monday.  I hope you have
enjoyed this module.

Today and tomorrow we present the miscellaneous Rashis left

#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*# (C) Dr Hendel, 2000 *#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*

EXAMPLE 46: Lv10-03a
==========

BACKGROUND
----------
Aarons sons had just offered a sacrifice they were not allowed to
They were punished with death. In comforting Aaron, Moses points
out that God honors himself with those >CLOSE< to him (implying
that the deceased children were close to God). Here are the
verses

VERSE Lv10-03
-----
>And Moses said to Aaaron..this(the death) is what God said
 IN THSE CLOSE TO ME I WILL BE SANCTIFIED<

 (The idea being that if God punishes even great people then
 those of lower rank will be fearful and respectful of God)

CROSS REFERENCE
---------------
Those who have been following this series know that Rashi
will always verify cross references. But in this case there
is no verse which says >THRU THOSE CLOSE TO ME WILL I BE
SANCTIFIED<


But Rashi finds a closest cross-reference in Ex29-43 which
we compare with Ex25-22

----------------------------------------------------------------
>Ill meet you      in the temple & command you....<
>Ill meet the Jews in the temple & BE SANCTIFIED BY MY WEIGHT<
                                      *1               *1
----------------------------------------------------------------

NOTES
-----
*1
As the extra phrase indicates God is saying two things:
---1st) I will meet the Jews in the temple
---2nd) I will become SANCTIFIED BY MY WEIGHT

Rashi links this verse with Lv10-03. Gods >WEIGHT< or >HONOR< is
manifested by punishing even those close to him. Thus indeed,
>SANCRIFIED BY MY WEIGHT< cross references >SANCTIFIED BY THOSE
CLOSE TO ME<



EXAMPLE 47: Gn27-42a
==========

THE VERSE
---------
Gn27-42 says >And Rivkah was told what Esauv planned to do
              (ie he planned to kill his brother)<



RASHI:
-----
>RIVKAH WAS TOLD< thru prophecy


Note that there is nothing grammatical eg in the use of the
phrase >She was told< that would indicate that it was by
prophecy that she was told.  Rather Rashi can be justified
by an OTHER VERSE


THE OTHER VERSE
---------------
Gn27-41 says explicitly

>And Esauv hated Jacob (because he stole the blessings)
and Esauv THOUGHT TO HIMSELF: ...I will kill my brother<


Thus the Bible explicitly says one verse earlier and emphasizes
that Esauv ONLY THOUGHT of Killing Jacob. Hence if the very
next verse says that Rivkah >HEARD ABOUT IT< it must be that
she heard thru prophecy.


For justification that the Hebrew idiom >SPOKE TO HIS HEART<
means >THOUGHT TO HIMSELF< see my article PESAHT AND DERASH:
