Book Title Bringing Heaven Down to Earth
Based on letters and talks of the Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson
« Previous Next »

13. On the Third Day There was Peace

First there was One. There was no peace, because there was nothing with which to make peace. There was only One.

Then there was Two. There was Plurality. From this point on, an infinite cacophony of conflict extended in all directions and forever.

And on the third day G-d created peace.

Peace is not homogeneity. Peace does not mean that everyone thinks the same way. Peace is when there is plurality that finds a higher Oneness.

Logically speaking you can't go from 1 to 2 without a 3. Just as on the 2nd day when elohim separated the water above from the water below there wasn't 2, but necessarily the 3rd thing i.e. rakyia, the "sky" which separates the two. A 3rd thing is always needed to separate One into two!

One the Third Day
It's hard to embrace the idea when people in power still push agendas that are anti semitic...
right now I am thinking about Helen Thomas but there are numerous others.
