Question

You said in the debate that it is reasonable that the Creator of the world would provide manufacturer’s instructions, and therefore it makes sense to believe in the tradition of the revelation at Mount Sinai.
But I wanted to ask: granted, that does make sense—but if so, shouldn’t that have happened at the beginning of creation and not 2448 years after the creation of the world, according to the tradition, or several million years later according to science? It seems a bit bizarre that all of a sudden, 3337 years ago (according to the tradition), He decided to give manufacturer’s instructions to a world He had created long before.
