Shemot texts

Tzav
 

Pasuk:  6, 4

"He shall [then] remove his garments
and dress in other garments.
He shall take out the ashes
beyond the encampment,
to a pure [undefiled] place."

[Note:  This pasuk deals with the removal of the large build-up of ashes, which only took place occasionally.  The previous pasuk dealt with the 'Terumah' , the offering of a panful of ashes left over from the 'Olah' (Burnt Offering), which took place daily.]

Rashi:

-  Now ask yourself:  -  Can you explain, in your own words,
            what Rashi says here?

                                     -  Now that you have read Rashi's answer,
                                        can you explain what his question was?

                                  -  Can you pick out particular words in
                                       the pasuk on which Rashi is focusing?

                                     -  Why does Rashi give us the 'mashal' of
                   the servant and his master
                           and what do we learn from it?
