A related problem: Does anyone else define the first group "beinonim"
and the latter group "tzadiqim"? The terms seem redefined, so that
the sources later quoted and interpreted according to these terms
are transvalued into saying things the author didn't intend. (Don't
shoot me, I said "seems" -- just how the text reads to this naive
reader.)
