Proof for Your View of Providence from the Megillah
Question
Hello Rabbi,
The story of the Megillah is not unusual in our history; a thousand similar stories have happened to the Jewish people. Even so, there is only one Purim (although many communities marked their own local Purims). Isn’t this proof that the Holy One, blessed be He, does not usually intervene, whereas Purim was an exceptional event that required a holiday of its own?
Answer
I didn’t understand the question.
