Hello Rabbi
1) Regarding the force of gravity or other natural forces (not the law that just describes it), when we say this, we mean it.
God created a system that works on its own, like a computer that processes, functions, or moves things after the programmer is finished.
Or he creates them himself as if it (the forces) were his “hands that do.”
2. The description of God as having all powers, which is accepted in our tradition, the Rabbi accepts this and if so
Is this a positive description of God or an attribute of Him? Does this belong to the definition of the perfect God?
3. Regarding the law of conservation, I did not understand a particle that was created along with an antiparticle and negative mass,
I didn’t understand what antiparticle means, what it either exists or it doesn’t, what antimatter or mass means
Negative, there is mass or there is no mass, I didn’t understand at all what you meant, you said balance, what does that mean?
Sorry for my ignorance.

  1. I don’t know. It could be this way and it could be that way.
  2. On the surface, this is a description. Maybe not even a description but an external characteristic like I am the owner of the table. It depends on whether these forces are what we see as forces (in the world) or are things that exist in him (like my muscle strength).
  3. This is negative mass. Its sum together with positive mass is 0. Mass is a type of charge, like electric charge. It has mass and its value/amount is negative.

Thanks for the great answer
1) I didn't understand what it means that their sum is zero, when the mass becomes zero then it will not be charged
with mass at all but it has other charges such as energy or the particle no longer exists
in reality.
2) Regarding a particle that carries negative mass, is there another third state; or that it carries positive mass
or that it is at zero, I can't imagine it. (The negative mass).

As I explained, in physics, mass is treated as another type of charge. Just as charge can be positive or negative, so can mass. A particle can exist without mass. A photon is a particle without mass.
The fact that you can't imagine is irrelevant to the discussion. It's not about imagining.
If you want to go deeper, you should study physics.
