Reply To: Why is Yad Soledes Bo so Cold?

Goan:

That was actually very helpful. So, what we call “yad soledes bo” is actually “vadai aino mugdar yad soledes.” It’s the highest temperature we can definitely still consider not yad soledes bo. So, 46 degrees C could potentially still be not yad soledes, but there’s no rayah in halachah. The highest temp that’s provably not yad soledes if 45 on account of the cow milk.

I’m not sure I follow the Ben Ish Chai you brought. Isn’t it just describing the pashut definition of yad soledes bo without giving an actual temperature or mashal?
