        This is just so casually said in that article

        It was said that Rabbi Eliezer had the power to destroy the whole world, yet due to the respectful manner in which he was ostracized, only a third of the world's crops were destroyed.

        Fun read, thanks for the link.

      The oven of ¿Arkhai? something like that. The story is about an oven and many people end up dying for the wrath of a rabbi who didn't like how it was built, or did like how it was built but the rest of rabbis didn't.
