Private supervision again…

I’ll start with an example: A certain person won the lottery twice. On the surface, this is a statistical fact that could happen. However, some want to claim that that person has supernatural abilities that caused this. Up to this point, you would seemingly agree with those who believe that this is a pure coincidence. However, here comes a twist in the plot – it turns out that that person once held a magic wand that performed miracles – threw people into the air, made objects disappear, and so on. Isn’t this a significant statistic that greatly strengthens those who believe that that person has superpowers? The analogy is, of course, clear: the people of Israel have experienced a more unique history than any other people. Unprecedented survival, the gathering of exiles, impossible victories in wars, the establishment of the state, and so on. In your opinion, all of these are pure statistics. However, don’t the manifest miracles of the past and our being a chosen people strengthen the argument that it is indeed a heavenly force that influenced all the cases I listed?

You express a similar opinion regarding the giving of the Torah, which alone is not evidence of anything, but when you connect it to the past and the broader story, you get a different picture.
