Reference for Moed Katan 51:4
ולא מתאחין מנלן דכתיב (מלכים ב ב, יב) ויחזק בבגדיו ויקרעם לשנים קרעים ממשמע שנאמר ויקרעם איני יודע שלשנים אלא מלמד שקרועים ועומדים לשנים לעולם
How exactly does it convey this [meaning]? - As R'Joseph rendered it [in Aramaic]: 'My master, my master, who was better [protection] to Israel with his prayer than chariots and horsemen'. And whence that these rents are not [to be] reunited? - From what is written [in the same passage]: And he [Elisha] took hold of his own clothes and rent them in two pieces.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' II Kings II, 12.');"><sup>3</sup></span> Once it says 'and he rent then;', do I not know that he rent them in two [asunder]?
