Question: Is there a concealed meaning according to the Kabbalistic perspective of the murders and atrocities described in the Torah, which seemingly take place according to the Creator’s command?
Answer: Yes. The meaning of murders mentioned in the Torah is that we must kill the egoistic attributes inside us. This is the only thing it refers to, not to people.
The Torah [1] only tells us about what a person does internally, both good and evil. Therefore, the wisdom of Kabbalah [2] is called the internal part of the Torah.
