A miracle is associated with a person.

One must ask because of the “correction of man” “sustainability of the world” “worship of God” “work of thought” and more
that Torah study is forbidden on Shabbat.

After we saw in column 376 that a bird needs only one second to soar and escape the heat, one must wonder why the bird did not feel a second before approaching Jonathan ben Uziel's head in the scorching heat, a feeling that should instinctively lead it to move away from the heat.

It seems, however, that the commentators say that the "swooping bird" is the thought, that the holiness of the Torah of Yiva immediately rejected any inappropriate thought that came to its mind.

In the book of Torah Chaim, he explained that the words simply meant that the fire burned around him, as it was with Rabbi Eliezer and Rabbi Yehoshua when they were engaged in Torah and the words were bright and joyful, as when they were given at Sinai, “the fire descended and blazed around them.” It is possible that Rashi, who interpreted that the ministering angels gathered to hear him, and Rech, who interpreted that the divine presence was in its place, understood that there was a literal fire.

The Meiri and the author of the “Tribe of Judah” (Cited in the Maharash and in the Ayun Yaakov) explained, as I mentioned above, that the “blooming bird” meant a thought, and that any distorted opinion was immediately nullified upon meeting with Yonatan ben Uziel, who immediately put the wrongdoer on his mistake.

If they interpreted “burnt” in the sense of “was nullified,” Rabbi Kook (cited in the Rabbi’s Dictionary) explained that the thought that came to his mind was refined and exalted and purified from all materiality: “The virtue of the study of Yonatan ben Uziel, that the thought had not yet had time to materialize from the touch of matter, It was refined and refined by the appearance of the upper light of the soul, which was greatly refined by the Holy Spirit of his study.

These things are parallel to the Hasidic explanation of Baal ‘Yismach Moshe’ that every ‘flying bird’, an angel, ‘burned’, that is, it was elevated to the level of ‘burning’. The ‘burning’ is therefore not a burning but a ‘elevation’ (And we have already been taught by Maimonides that the angels are the thoughts.

It is also worth noting that according to the Rabbi of Kotzk, the degree of the Rabbi, Hillel, was greater than the degree of the student, 12:1, that with the Rabbi the fire was internal without any external manifestation.
