My rebbe mentioned to us that just as Elazar ben Durdayah was at about to have cohabitation with harlot, she passed gas. The harlot said to Elazar ben Durdayah, "Just as this current of air cannot return to its place of origin, so to, they will not receive Elazar ben durdayah in repentance."
Where is the source for this?
Why would she use her 'passing of gas' to tell Elazar ben Durdayah that they will not receive his repentance?
