It could be that the price of te rabbit and te price of the rabbit are not equal in differet places of the world, then there would be a contradiction between the definition of maaleh guera. What can you sau about this?<br />2. A cow is also known to be maaleh guera but its price is much more than the rabbits. What can you say about this?<br />3. It is know in chassidus that those things prihibited by the Torah belong to some spiritual influence names "shalosh kelipot temeot". I could understand that the spiitual influence of an animal can could be distiguished by its appereance like the splitt hooves cognotation, but do you suggest that there is a spiritual impurity influence that changes in relation to the demand and offer of gold and certain animals?<br /><br />Kind Regards<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17431799070809800515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5589564.post-56716116671044359012013-03-08T10:56:58.298-05:002013-03-08T10:56:58.298-05:00Elias Cohen:
