Why Does G‑d Test Us?

Vaeira Thank you for your discussion.I agree truth is consistent and doesn't change despite the circumstances. The test that Hashem has given me is for my good. I realize also that my decisions can also bring bad things into my life. So i must work more now on not bringing bad upon myself. Reply

gifted faith so how do we explain the existence of atheist jews? Reply

Thank you for a beautiful lesson.
Could you please spell Hashem"s name as He revealed it to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob?
Thanks again. Reply

Thanks Thank you for that very uplifting lesson Reply

hardships Hi! Nice to watch this video!,
personally i have never thought that it was G-d who gave me hardships but that it was the stupidness of people of systems of dummness and cruealty etc etc that has made me gone through hardships.

That's how i got through it by KNOWING that it is not of G-d, this cruelty is not part of G-d.

But since i am also limited in percieving G-d off course, but knowing that cruelty is not of G-d, so also not a test or given to me or whatever, i could survive, knowing that this pain hardship has NOTHING to do with G-d. Reply

Why Does G-d Test Us? This is a beautiful way to teach about the love of G-d. I really appreciate it very much Chana Weisberg. You seem to be full of the Ruach of Hashem. As I study this part of Torah with you and the rest at the table, relating to the study of understanding the things that happens to us... This is the part that I do not see like everybody else does. I do not know why, but I do not see the difficult times I am going through personally as Hashem's testing me. For what I see is the behavior of certain people around me. We as individual, have choices to make. As I try to take responsibility for my actions, I believe that others need to do the same. I do not know if I am hard on myself or others. My experience is with humans being. I cannot blame G-d for the difficult situations I am going through now and have gone through in my past. Sometimes, yes, maybe G-d test us. But not all the time. Like in the case of Abraham and Isaac. as an example. We bring upon ourselves and others evil. Reply

measuring the change brought by light greetings:

if you are interested, i am aware of tools that might be used to measure the effect of light - on oxygen - and using an oxygen formation that is 15 million years old. you may be familiar with the notion expressed in Jurasic Park - I actually have an amber piece that we are sheltering from light in order to keep the process of change from accelerating. this may seem obtuse - but IMHO I believe we may be able to grow spiritual understanding by measuring the effect.
