New revelations in science have shown what a strange and remarkable universe we live in; the illusion of purpose and design is perhaps the most pervasive illusion about nature that science has to confront on a daily basis.
The most important question of our time is, How large is the universe? This abstract, existential question is rooted in purpose – if the universe started in a Big Bang, going on forever, then purpose has no place in creation; but, the Torah has a different explanation.
According to the Talmud-Book of Law, The Creator yelled at the universe, shortly after creation, Di/Enough and thereby made a limited universe with a meaningful design. The Zohar-Book of Secret describes creation as being engraved within the Hard Light – the limit of creation.
If the universe is without limit, then, as has been explained by scientists, all happenings would eventually be repeated over and over again rendering creation a senseless, spontaneous happening without purpose or direction. Such theories minimize the human experience.
The expanse of creation can be calculated by squaring the 365 days of a year times the 2000 years God played with creation before saying Di/Enough; the sum, 266,450,000 is the approximate elapsed time, required for the stars to blink on, according to scientific theory.
