sense in the lessons
In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: In the Torah it can mean a swelling on the skin, or "sun-rising" meaning the east. In the Prophets and Writings "rising up" means getting up, and the "rising" of light means the shining of dawn. Interpretation: Rabbis treated skin swellings as signs to be examined by the priest. The east, where the sun rises, is also the direction of the Land of Israel from Babylon. Isaiah's "brightness of thy rising" is read as the light of God shining on Zion and drawing the nations. In the primary lessons: In science and geography, warm air is rising; bread dough is rising because of yeast; sea levels are rising because of climate change; rivers are rising after heavy rain, which can mean floods — stay away from flood water. In maths, a rising graph shows an increase; «rising by 5 each time» describes a sequence. In history, the Easter Rising of Ireland is famous. Phrases: «rising sun», «rising tide», «rising star», «rising prices», «sea levels are rising».
