The רשב"ם writes
he had an argument and convinced his grandfather רש"י the need
to always stick to Pshat and not to
deviate at times to
Drush.
The Pasuk says Miriam &
Aaron spoke על אדות האשה הכשית All Meforshim explain that
the כשית refers to Tzipora, Moishe's wife
The רשב"ם claims
it couldn't refer toTzipora, being she was from מדין Bnei
Keturah (Avraham) and כוש is from חם.
The רשב"ם writes based on an Agadda (legend)
Moishe Rabeinu escaped Mitzrayim to כוש (Africa) He became king and married the
queen of כוש. The רשב"ם claims she was the כשית that
Aaron & Miriam spoke about.
