Revelation and Mount Sinai
Hello Rabbi,
You write that God requires revelation and that this revelation is probably Mount Sinai.
It is difficult for me to understand what was before this revelation, and why there was no revelation for everyone with a choice.
Regards
Thank you very much.
Any reason God had for creating the world could be attacked in the same way: So what was there before creation? I have explained this here several times. There are situations in which preparation is required, and when it is completed, then the act (creation, or revelation) comes. The purpose of revelation is humanity and all of creation, not a specific person. Just as there are different circles among humans even after the revelation: priests, Jews (men and women), Gentiles, each of whom received a different mission and not all of the missions.
Even if we assume that the obligation to the Gentiles is the Seven Commandments of the sons of Noah, is the revelation at Mount Sinai sufficient to meet the requirement of revelation to the Gentiles as well? This does not work so well in reality.
I didn't understand.
