Pesachim 13: Elijah Not Welcome Erev Shabbes

Perhaps Elijah the Prophet will come on Shabbat and establish prophetically that the teruma is not ritually impure…

But no worry: Our daf speaks of Elijah being unable to arrive on Erev Shabbes or Yom Tov:

I was thinking about Elijah and being welcome after Shabbat in havdala and during the Seder night…and the poem by Yala Korwin: we didn’t dare to sing and open the door for Elijah

How do we relate to Elijah now?
