Terminach shaitach, you're a mazel. Hopefully your mazel will stay a little bit to ask a good kasha. What came to mind is the Gemara in Maseches Bava Basra that you base it on a loft. This Gemara is a a classic. The Gemara over there says that Mishichris Bais Hamikdash, af al pi she nisla nevuah min ha nevi'im, min ha chachamim lo nisla, right? Min ha chachamim, min ha shoitim, min ha tinokos, that's the sugya over there in the first perek of Maseches Bava Basra. But either way, as it relates to chachamim, so the Gemara is trying to figure out how you know this. So Rava said, "Pay that, I'll prove it to you. The amora gavar Rava Milsa." Because sometimes you find the gavar Rava says a something, u'mis'amer mishmei d'Rebbi Akiva bar Yosef Kavlasei, and you find out later that he was mechaven to the great Rebbi Akiva. Now, how could you be mechaven to the great Rebbi Akiva? It's impossible. Must be nevuah. So you see clearly the mussag of nevuah amongst the chachamim Bais Medrash, you're going to see prophecy. This is what Rava said. Amora Rashi, Rashi said, "Amay kushya? Dilma l'hon malsa b'arba mazlei'hu." Says, "Maybe they had the same mazel. And this chacham who asked this kasha, the Rebbi Akiva right there, we'll say Rebbi Akiva Eiger, right? But this kasha that this person was mechaven, who was mechaven Rebbi Akiva, he was mechaven Rebbi Akiva Eiger, maybe he has the same mazel here. And because he has the same mazel, so you see to ask a good kasha is a malsa to Rebbi Akiva. That's what the Gemara Dilma l'hon malsa b'arba mazlei'hu. This is what Reish Lakish told him. Terminach shaitach, you're a mazel. It's the same thing, I get the kasha. This is one of the divurim that is po'el b'mazel.
