Ben Levi:
To summarize:
I quoted the ?????? ??? ??????, the ??? ????, the ???? ??????, ?????? ???????, the ???? ??????, the Gemara in ???, the Gemara in ???????, the Gemara in ?????, the Maharatz Chayes, the ??? ?????, R’ Shamshon Refael Hirsch, R’ Gedaliah Nadel (incidentally, the fact that it wasn’t meant for publication – if that’s even true – does not change the fact that this is how he understood the Rambam), R’ Aryeh Carmell, ?’ ???? ???? ???????, the ??? ?????, and the ???”? ???. Your response was that the ???? ?????? is an invalid source, that there’s a machlokes about medicine, that R’ Avraham ben Harambam is a forgery, and that R’ Gedaliah Nadel was not meant for publication. I think I already adequately addressed all your responses. So again, what point am I missing?
