ברכות כה,ב

The common expression in the gemora תיקו – תושבי יתרץ קושיות ואעביות referring to Eliyahu Hanovi will come to answer all questions and shalahs, so why isn’t his name mentioned? Maybe, the Chasam Sofer questions that he is malach, so how can you follow him? He answers that if he comes as a human being, his views are accepted. This is what is implied here. He comes from his place of residence as a human being. The other question is, why not Moshe Rabbenu after techiyas hamesim? They answer that we need someone who understands things because he lived through the times.
