RZS:
>>Rashi's intended five-year-old audience might well wonder what our ancestors converted to in Egypt, so >>Rashi explains that "ger" just means stranger.

I find this comment intriguing. Apparently RZS believes that Rashi wrote his commentary on the Torah specifically for small children. I certainly don't believe that this is the case, and wonder what led RZS to this conclusion.
