Question
What is the Rambam referring to when he elaborates on Nevuah, and talks about that G-d imparts knowledge (mada) into the hearts of men? Is he referring to Ruach HaKodesh? Or, is he just giving some sort of definition for Nevuah that pertains to this halacha? If he is just defining Nevuah, why does he feel the need to do so here? If he is talking about Ruach HaKodesh, what might be the parameters of that? For example, if someone accepts Rashi of the Godel Hador of his time and accepts that he was a holy person, and gives appropriate weight to his commentaries and piskie halacha, but does not believe that he wrote his commentaries on Chumash with Ruach haKodesh or if someone similarly does not believe that the targum of Onkelos or Yonathan ben Uziel were written with Ruach Ha Kodesh, is that on par with not believing in Nevuah? Similarly, (in addition to accepting their piskei halacha as halacha) would one need to assume that even the leaders of our generation are guided by ruach a Hakodesh?

Question
Shalom aleicheim! From learning about Judaism over the years I know that only descendant of Adam have free will. That means that angels, including Satan/yetzer hara do not have free will and are only capable of acting on the orders of the Creator. However, I have encountered a commentary that seems to suggest the opposite. A note in the Saperstein Edition of the Chumash Rashi Bereshis 3:14 (page 35) states the following: "5. In capital cases, the court is commanded to search for any legal avenue for acquittal. Our verse teaches us that this is not so in the case of one who incites another to commit idolatry. The serpent here was guilty of that sin, for he convinced the woman of the idolatrous idea that she could be "like God." See also Rashi to Deuteronomy 13:9." How can the nohosh be guilty of sin? Doesn't he act on Hashem's behalf? Please help me reconcile this. Thank you so much!
