Redemption and the Real World

The Evil Inclination may approach a Jew and claim, “You’ve been busy studying Torah and doing mitzvos – but I’ve been out there in the real world. There are so many other nations, so many influences which oppose Torah study and Jewish observance. You can sit in the synagogue or the study hall and ‘await his coming every day’… But the world seems to show an entirely different reality!”

The answer: A Jew must let the Evil Inclination know that it’s an ignoramus! It obviously doesn’t know that this has all been done before.
