Wonders 15 -the Amazing Tongue

Why is the tongue so slippery ?
Why does it stay in a laying position ?
Why is it the only organ which resides inside of the body but it can stick out of the body ?
Why does the tongue have two barriers , of bone (teeth) & of flesh (lips) ?
See Erechin 15b.
Our Sages teach that Hashem arranged for the tongue many lessons of HANDLE WITH CARE.
This instrument can be misused as a lethal weapon. It can also be utilized in many ways to bring blessings into the world.
May you all merit great success in all of your endeavors.
Now may be a good time for a gem of Torah study.
