Against All Odds

January 27, 2022 by Lazer Brody

Moshe, a sergeant in the Israeli Navy, had beads of sweat on his forehead; tears glistened in his eyes. “The newspapers don’t write about the miracles and the Divine Direction that we all saw when that missile hit us. I ran to my bunk on the deck right below the landing pad. It was charcoal; my metal bunk was completely melted down and all my possessions were ashes. If I hadn’t been detained in the chapel and in the dining room for Shabbat meal, I’d have been charcoaled too. I haven’t stopped thanking Hashem since…”

Israel’s turbulent history transcends all logic, military and otherwise. It’s beyond nature to the extent that experts in military history and strategy understand everything but Jewish history. That’s exactly the subject of our lesson today. Hashem’s personal Divine Direction is constantly defying nature and logic.
