Sam2: I respectfully disagree. I have read much of their writings and very often they do not cite any written sources at all. Besides, I think you’re missing the point. I am not saying this on my own. I heard this from my teachers who heard it from their teachers who heard it from their teachers etc. I do not need a written source. I will not address this point any further. Please focus on the main idea. If it does not appeal to you that’s ok, but I think I have sufficiently explained why a written source is unnecessary here.( All of torah after tanach was at some point part of the oral tradition, and was not written down. So why do you not question the ‘source’ of the entire talmud bavli or talmud yerushalmi safra sifrei tosefta etc.?)
