The Deep and the Hidden, Part 3 of 3

Hi,

(continued from Thursday, still explaining Daniel 2:22, "He reveals deep and hidden things")

"R' Yehudah bar Simon said: From the beginning of the creation of the world, "He reveals deep and hidden things."

""In the beginning, Gd created the heavens" and He did not explain it. Where did He explain it? Isaiah 40:22, "He extends the heavens like a curtain."

""And the earth" and He did not explain it. Where did He explain it? Job 37:6, "He tells the snow, be [on the] land," and Job 38:38, "When the dirt was hardened into a solid."

""And Gd declared, 'There will be light' and He did not explain it. Where did He explain it? Psalms 104:2, "He is cloaked in light, like a garment.""

(Midrash, Bereishit Rabbah 1:6)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
