Jun 5	comment	Which books help one acquire a systematic understanding of Biblical Hebrew grammar? I'm sorry I wasn't able to help you better.
Jun 4	comment	Why is there a Vuv with a Patach in וַיִּקְרָא? I really imagine I need to read the FAQ concerning the scope of this website. I've posted my questions on the basis of what I saw, a site based on the simple question "Mi Yodea." When someone asks "Who Knows Three Hundred?"I don't see the need for sourcing or attribution. I don't know of a context outside of Tanakh where I would come upon the word Vayikra. I assumed, perhaps erroneously, that it would be a given. I see that questions need to be formulated within the confines of Mi Yodea. I have no problem abiding by this decorum; I can however attest to its limiting nature.
Jun 4	comment	How do you improve your Kavvanah [concentration]? @Shemmy Make it an answer!
Jun 4	comment	Why is there a Vuv with a Patach in וַיִּקְרָא? I understand your comment regarding the relevance of this question to the aims of this website. However, I do not know of a better forum for a question like this. This includes this site's constitution of Torah Observant Jews that contribute with an accuracy that is not to be found anywhere on the web. If I am in error in such reasoning, please share.
May 30	comment	Who knows of a online siddur that is not vocalized? @msh210 Thanks I thought verification was enough.
May 30	comment	Who knows of a online siddur that is not vocalized? Million thanks. Never would have seen it myself.
May 30	comment	Who knows of a online siddur that is not vocalized? @DoubleAA That would be really helpful!
May 30	comment	Who knows of a online siddur that is not vocalized? @AriA working hard to deprogram my nekkudim crutch.
May 25	comment	How old is the custom to eat dairy on Shavuos? This is a great opportunity where translating Hebrew would elucidate the answer.
May 24	comment	What possible Kashrus concerns may exist with these vitamins? Pardon my asking, but how is this not a personalized question?
May 24	comment	All people in world are Jews? Notice how the above answer puts "Jew" in quotation marks when referring to Abraham. judaism.stackexchange.com/questions/16434/…
May 22	comment	Can the word “eitz” mean “a thought” in the Torah? PDF of entire text. Indispensable resource.
May 22	comment	Can the word “eitz” mean “a thought” in the Torah? @SethJ Hmmm, that's in tune with a lot of good stuff.
May 21	comment	Can the word “eitz” mean “a thought” in the Torah? @SethJ What's the "right" question, and what makes it so?
May 21	comment	What is the Halachah if someone lost an object despite efforts to protect it? @IsaacMoses You are welcome to close this.
May 21	comment	What is the Halachah if someone lost an object despite efforts to protect it? You are correct - I've changed the title. I was going on a trip and I didn't have enough room to pack my laptop. I asked my roommate to hold onto it until I could retrieve it. No monetary payment for the service. I think this is a chinum example, and he is not responsible.
May 21	comment	Which books help one acquire a systematic understanding of Biblical Hebrew grammar? Have you tried amazon? There are plenty of books. Keep in mind Biblical Hebrew is mostly taught by non-Jews.
May 21	comment	Moshe talking to the Mizbeach? You've got to!!!! :D
May 20	comment	Moshe talking to the Mizbeach? Consider your comment: "Pronouns are (usually) used to refer to something that was previously named (i.e. the mishkan, ohel moed) not something that is yet to be named (i.e. the Voice)." That's really the antecedent issue. As to your questions about placement and chronology, that's an issue I thought separate from the antecedent problem.
May 20	comment	Moshe talking to the Mizbeach? @AriA Essentially, in order to link pronouns to antecedents that are seemingly absent, Rashi employed a "reference method." This includes analyzing and linking passages that are at a distance (most notably in my example, even looking ahead for something which is normally placed before.) I infer that the distance of seven you mentioned is no barrier for the location of your missing antecedent.
