[Avodah] Can a Rasha do Teshuva?

[T613K at aol.com]

You're right, I mixed up two stories.  But anyway the point is, a  rasha 
can do teshuva.  He may still have to die in order for his teshuva to  be 
complete.

You're  thinking of the story of how R Elazar ben Dordai was kone olamo
besha'a  achat in AZ 17, but I think the bat kol has crept into your
memory from  elsewhere: R Elisha ben Abuya claimed to R Meir that he
heard a bat kol  saying "Shuvu banim shovevim, hutz me-acher", and IIRC
it's a mahloket  whether he actually heard it, or whether this was his
greatest  heresy.
