Great article, Dr. Brawer!
Maybe someone could clarify for me something: isn't 'will' (ratzon), a property of some sort, or is it also an attribute of G-d?

Mr. Brawer :
Yes, I read this entirely. ..Tevya is humankind.
Tevya, you would upset your own apple cart!
Tevya would no longer be a humble, lovable herdsman of the story; he would change.
Our Tevya is a man we love and identify with, are those rich folks philanthropic? I don't see it...!

In Tevye's Query By Yaakov Brawer is it at all possible that Tevye is much more simplistic than this?
|
Fascinating article, providing the momentum to actualize our inspirational, Divine, spiritually enlightened altruistic and compassionate potential.
|
Wow. How can you argue with this article??
|
With great clarity, questions loaded with the heaviness of all searching souls, were at least reflected with sympathy. Excellent, uplifting!
|
Loved to read your article, Dr. Yaakov Brawer. Your article makes me hungry for reading more of your articles.
|
And then we all die. So what's the difference?
|
You have a magical way with words, profound and on target, your articles are highly inspirational. I try to read one every time I need a spiritual boost. Thank You

I tried so hard to concentrate on your article, but "yuh, bah, de, be, de bah, bah"
was playing so loudly in my head, that it was very hard to pay attention to your scholarly words.......so, I guess I'll scroll back and try it again.
In any case, thanks for the memories! No matter how "not orthodox" the actual content of "Fiddler on the Roof" it sure sparked my soul, when I first saw it on Broadway, many years ago.........

Thank you for a good essay that even a goy like me can appreciate.
It was thoughtful and well written, and showed interesting thought about The Inscrutable.
|
It does make a difference. Because a lot can happen before we die. Because we can make a lot happen before we die. Think of all that the Rebbe did with his 92 years on this earth - how many lives he touched, how many people were affected for the better.

Thank you for your delightful response. I sense that your post was designed as much to comfort as to correct, and it's nice to think that there are caring people like you in this world.
