Is It Possible to Justify the Actions of the Creator?

43Question: We study that the Creator is good and does good. But we see a lot of evil in the world: wars, murders, and crimes. How can we see this as a manifestation of the good Creator? Sometimes it seems impossible.

Answer: We cannot understand this yet. To do this we need to rise a little above our world, and then we will see in a perspective from the beginning to the end of creation what it should go through. Only to this extent will we be able to justify the Creator. Otherwise, in our eyes and in our properties there is nothing more terrible than the Creator.

Everything that happens in the world comes from Him. Therefore, evil is a manifestation of His governance. We must see ourselves as the chosen ones in order to change this governance from evil to good.

Therefore it is said: “I have created the evil inclination and gave the Torah to correct it.” The Torah is the upper light that we must attract upon ourselves, and to this extent we will begin to feel how our world turns into good. This is all entrusted to us. Let’s try to do it.
