[Avodah] Scholarly article on one Rashi in Bereshis

[torahmike at gmail.com]

I stumbled upon this interesting article(by a teacher at Bar Ilan) about
the Rashi in Bereshis that (quoting a gemora in Yevamos) says Adam 'mated
with all the animals'

https://www.jstor.org/stable/4131671

To summarize, it became a big debate among commentators, partly influenced
by non-Jewish criticism, whether to take this Rashi literally. Chizkuni and
others clearly understood it literally, while Maharshal and others took the
opposite approach.
