Creating My Own Spiritual Path

A person can be spiritual and even religious without Torah. Why then does Torah insist on a defined set of rules? In addressing this question, an age-old debate between Issac and Ishmael is analyzed, yielding a surprising outcome. (Based on Likutei Sichos vol. 25, p.86.)

Respectfully Rabbi, without impertinence,

8 days, age 13 years or more mature in years, is only relevant to the understanding of the reader. Yom Kippur is the day of atonement. A baby is pure an adolescent has been taught regarding HaShem.

Time is irrelevant with HaShem, it is a point of purification and understanding of this purification.

No one is more precious. 8 days is unique in that the parents are taught and knowledgeable in both HaShem and the relevance of the conception and birth of a child, here a male child.

Induction, teaching and choice are equal beyond human comprehension. HaShem holds the truth as to why each individual is introduced to HaShems Will at a time which is only appropriate to the individual. We do not question this. Reply
