God

asked 3 years ago

Hello Rabbi
Assuming that the concept of ‘good’ is determined by human perception, how can it be claimed that God is good? Then you have a million and one things that are not good that God does/causes (the concept that ‘God alone knows what is good’ and ‘everything God does for good he does’ sounds absurd and uninformed to me).
Incidentally (this is related to the previous question), how can we logically explain that the Torah was given to us for our benefit (as God, the Blessed One, wanted to benefit Israel, therefore He gave them many blessings) from the time of Tithi?

It seems to me that you intended to ask based on the assumption that a person understands the concept of good (and not that he establishes it), meaning that good is what I understand as good and not that there is an invisible good that cannot be revealed to me (as is customary to explain immoral laws). I have written several times here on the site about the question of evil, and I have divided it into human evil and natural evil. You can search the site. In short, I say that the problem of evil in the world can be explained without assuming that there is an unseen good that is only visible to God. It can be argued that when there is evil in the world, it is created because it is necessary for good purposes, and that is the necessary price. See the above places for the details. I didn’t understand your questions at the end.
