Question: (from 11-year-old Idan) If the Creator spoke with people in the Bible and in the Pentateuch, why does He not speak with us now? And if He does speak with us, with today’s generation, then how can we know about it?

Answer: The Creator is constantly speaking to you, but you do not hear Him. He lives in your heart and addresses you, but you do not want to open your heart!

He knocks on your heart as on a door, but you do not open because you do not hear His knocks, you lack hearing, Bina, the quality of bestowal. If someone knocks on the door and you have a hearing problem, you do not hear it. The “ear,” hearing in spirituality, is the level of Bina, the force of bestowal. If you were receptive to bestowal, to love of your neighbor, you would hear that He is addressing you.

Question: What does He say?

Answer: He says: “Let’s embrace! Let’s be together.” But to embrace the Creator means to be like Him, to live in the quality of bestowal and love of one’s neighbor, and this, I do not want! “Give me something for me personally, then come! But with what You are offering me, do not come! I do not want to open to You.” This is what we say to Him.
