God’s providence and influence on the world and man

Reading your column in response to Rabbi Moshe Rat’s response on the subject
I asked: You state that you believe in the Torah and believe that God expects us to keep the commandments, and you also do not deny reward and punishment.
In the Torah it is written that God punishes and gives material rewards to humanity and the world in the context of keeping His commandments, and there are many verses about this, and the Torah says that it is also for our times. The Bible also contains prayers and requests from Abraham and Moses to God, and why should we assume that because there are fewer obvious miracles, God changes policy?
In light of this, how is it possible to both believe in the Torah and claim that God does not intervene in events and nature today?
Even the Oral Torah and the Psalms, for example, are close to all who read them, etc.

All of these questions were answered in detail in the book he reviews, and also here on the site in several columns and questions. There is no point in repeating here things that have already been written at length. See, for example, columns 280, 298, 463 and many more.
