Bava Basra 074: Pshat in Agaddata

Jeffrey asked:

What is the "nimshol" of the story with Huna Bar Nosson and the meat and the 
coals glowing 12 months later? 

Jeffrey, Brooklyn NY
----------------------------------------------
The Kollel replies:

The only explanation I found in the various Sefarim that I looked was that of 
the Maharal, who explains that this story is coming to describe the tough 
character of the desert. The nature of the desert, he explains, is tough. So 
the plants that grow there are tough too. Consequently, they have the power to 
strengthen other things. They are able to weld together the parts of objects 
that are broken and even to enable flesh to grow on to bones. And it is the 
same toughness, he says, that enable them to burn for longer periods than the 
fuel that we use on regular land.
