Re: Subject: Learning 70 Languages, Fat that doesn't Rot, Shamir
 
Chaim M. asked:
>>2) On Baba Metzia 83a appears the case where Rebbi Eleazar tested himself. he 
>>removed fat from his stomach and put it in the hot sun, and it it did not 
>>rot. 
I heard that the body of tzadikim do not rot after they live them... evidence 
has been told about that in recent years. (i remember i read something of it, 
in books written by the Rebbi Twerski).<<
>>4) Sanhedrin 65b appears a case where Rava created an animal using the sefer 
>>ha'yetizira. As always the question is: Was it a physical event? or it was an 
>>aggadah?<<

Rav Yitzchok Zirkind comments:
 
2) See Tosfos Bava Basra 17a DH Shiv'ah (who writes that although the bodies of 
Tzadikim do not fully decompose, they usually are subject to some sort of decay 
- "Shalat Bahem Rimah").
 
4) It was Rava who created a Golem, and Rebbi Chiya & Rebbi Oshiyah created a 
calf - and ate it. See Margoliyos Hayam ibid. (#28, 31) who cites Rabeinu 
Chananel as saying that the Golem wasn't real; it was just "Achizas Einayim" 
(made to appear like a man). But the calf must have been real, because they ate 
it for their Shabbos meal!
