Exodus 21:1

Now these are the ordinances which thou shalt set before them.

What's bothering Rashi?

Why does the verse open with 'And these are the ordinances' using the connective word 'and' rather than simply beginning 'These are'?

Look closely. What seems repeated, missing, out of order, or strange?
