- In this case it is different, for R'Johanan retracted his view in favour of that of R'Simeon B'Lakish, for he said: 'Do not worry me [with any more of your arguments] for I regard that Mishnah as the opinion of an individual'.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. Pes. 84a. R. Johanan originally held that whatsoever was edible now was considered flesh, and based his view on the Mishnah infra 122a, 'The skin of the head of a tender calf is considered flesh', although when the calf grows up this skin will harden and become inedible. Subsequently R. Johanan changed his view and ruled that the skin of the head of a tender calf does not contract uncleanness since it hardens later on. When confronted by R. Simeon b. Lakish with the above quoted Mishnah he replied that he did not adopt the ruling of that Mishnah since it was merely the opinion of an individual Rabbi. V. supra 55b, and infra 122a.');"><sup>5</sup></span>
