Date: August 4th, 2025 10:36 AM Author: ...,,..;...,,..,..,...,,,;.., Kal va-ḥomer: a minore ad maius - an argument that denotes an inference from smaller to bigger and vice versa (Identical with the first rule of Hillel). Gezerah shavah: an analogy or inference from one verse to another (Identical with the second rule of Hillel). Binyan av: Rules deduced from a single passage of Scripture and rules deduced from two passages. (This rule is a combination of the third and fourth rules of Hillel.) Kelal u-Peraṭ: The general and the particular. u-Peraṭ u-kelal: The particular and the general. Kelal u-Peraṭ u-kelal: The general, the particular, and the general. The general which requires elucidation by the particular, and the particular which requires elucidation by the general. The particular implied in the general and excepted from it for pedagogic purposes elucidates the general as well as the particular. The particular implied in the general and excepted from it on account of the special regulation which corresponds in concept to the general, is thus isolated to decrease rather than to increase the rigidity of its application. The particular implied in the general and excepted from it on account of some other special regulation which does not correspond in concept to the general, is thus isolated either to decrease or to increase the rigidity of its application. The particular implied in the general and excepted from it on account of a new and reversed decision can be referred to the general only in case the passage under consideration makes an explicit reference to it. Deduction from the context. When two Biblical passages contradict each other the contradiction in question must be solved by reference to a third passage.
