  Quick Question

  How do we answer why Hashem cares what the mitzrim think?

  Thank you for your great insights, warmth, and scholarship. As you discussed the recent violence in Eretz Yisroel I heard you a number of times say something like we would have been lost if it hadn't been for the iron dome.  

  Isn't it true that Hashem is the One who wins all our wars for us and the axe has no power without the one who is using it to chop down the tree?  Same goes for the iron dome.  Without Hashem directing it, it wouldn't be able to protect us at all  It's just a tool in the hand of Hashem, our savior, so we shouldn't praise the tool.

    Of course, we thank Hashem. An iron dome is a tool of Hashem!

    Read up on the history of the Iron Dome and you'll see the hand of Hashem in it's creation!

    If it was up to the minister of Defense at the time, Amir Peretz, it would have never been created - the team working on it went behind his back and continued working on it after he cancelled it!

    Also, one of the engineers who created it was saved from a terrorist attack in his Ra'anana home years ago.

    Open Yad Hashem all the way!

    Rav YY - you are a gift from Hashem to the world - thank you for being the Ambassador of Light, Hope, Healing, etc. and igniting so many others!  Hashem should continue to bless you with everything good so you can continue being משפיע טובכם לרבים in good health!

  Question - you state they did teshuva immediately following, and were prepared to go up and conquer the land but Moshe told them not to. Based on what you said, that this was about mindest and emunah and believing in their ability, it appears that their mindset had in fact changed and they now felt they could do this and Hashem could make it happen. Through their teshuvah they had renewed confidence and faith to do as Hashem wished. Why then would they still need to die and not be permitted to enter the land? How do you reconcile those two points?

  Thank you

  You often talk about the person with low self image and trauma

  Yet, the opposite also exists.

  Sure there are many people with insecurities, low self esteem, trauma, etc.,

  But there are also people with inflated egos, who think they're G-d's gift to mankind, have unrealistic ideas of their capabilities, etc.

  As always, the proper approach is the balanced one, you are not that great nor that pathetic.
