I forgot to mention that the Stira in the Rambam is from the Maharam Al Ashkar, that I went through after it was mentioned here by Sam2.
I hadn’t seen or heard of this Stira anywhere else. It is just proof that we don’t really fully undertand the Rambam, and we shouldn’t be touting the Rambam as a source for denying narratives in the Torah, at least until we get to the bottom of this.
