    When we do a mitzvah we are fulfilling Hashem's desire

    And when we take out the garbage we are fulfilling a spouse's desire?

    For rhe spouse whose marriage is not constant

    Is a "rupture". The relationship must be a constant one.

    What then, of the relationship between Hashem and the yidden when He allowed the Beis Hamigdash to be destroyed? Will you say that only the house was destroyed but the relationship was not, at least partly or temporarily ruptured?

    Rosh Hashana is the beginning of the year in time

    But time exists only from our perspective.  So rosh Hashana as the renewal of the year is only from our perspective. 

    What about from His perspective that is above time? What about the concept of renewal of time and creation annually from His perspective? 

    What about the Rogachover's concept that at every second all is renewed and recreated?

    Rosh Hashana renews the year

    But.....there is an opinion that it is rosh chodesh Nissan when creation (actually Adam) was created. How to reconcile this? And by those who hold Nissan is rosh Hashana what do they make of Tishrei?

    The light that comes from the darkness after

    The tzimtzum, is greater than the original light.

    Like Esav comes from a higher plate than Yakov, and Yitzchak recognized this.  But this was only both in source and potential.  Potential must have effort to become realized in actuality.

    Like a bt can rise higher than a ffb. And perhaps his source abd potential ate likewise higher.

    Hashem was one and there was no other

    Before creation. The "pelah", wonder? Is that He could create something that could deny Jo's existence, could even go against His will. To create angels without free will like robots, who cannot go against His will  nor deny His existence, is no wonder. That He could create beings, like people, who could both deny His existence and even go against His will is not only a wonder (to us) but surely amuses Him. To overcome that temptation throughout life? Is our holy task.

      Humans are to imitate Hashem. "Imitatio Deus". So today children, created by parents, can also deny that their parents are their parents.

      "You're not my mommy". 

      Like this parents are like Hashem!
