The Ultimate Purim Question - Salomon Says Video

P him right around the corner yes my favorite day of the year is finally coming and can't be more excited about it and of course on PM we Lan as you know the Milla it's called millas Esther Loosely translated it means the Book of Esther how many of you know what the word Milla really means what is the root and how many of you know what the word Esther means the root Milla the root word is galui which means to reveal leg galot and Esther the root word is actually CER Sater which means hidden so millat Esther which is the Book of Esther actually means revealing the hidden and what's so curious about it is that there is something that is hidden about the Milla about the book it is from all the books of the scriptures the only one many of you know this it's the only one that what does not contain God's name kind of strange book of the scriptures God's name is not there and of course the rabbis do have some kind of references that tell us that is actually hidden but the actual name of God is missing interesting to wonder why but there's a great lesson to be learned from that too and that is that when you look back and we read the story of what happened at that time 2400 years ago we are amazed by it look at all the Miracles that happened look how the Jews were saved look at all the quote coincidences that were not coincidences at all but actually the hand of God but yet at the time that it was happening all these things they looked natural looks like there was no hand of God it looked like it was just a normal thing Esther becoming Queen uh the how the whole story turned around with Hon Etc the lesson to be learned is that it seems at the time that God is not there sometimes you have to take a step back sometimes you have to wait and when you look back your perspective actually changes and you see you know what that was the hand of God so many times in our lives today especially we sometimes wonder where is God what is he doing what is he thinking what is he planning we don't see God's hand my answer to you is that you may have to wait it may only be clear looking backwards when you look sometime in the future and you take a look back at now then perhaps we will see the hands of God but do not despair the hand of God is everywhere the question of course is why why does he choose to not reveal himself why does he choose to stay sometimes in the background that's my question to you give it some thought give us your comments why does God sometimes hide quote behind some kind of cloak and not reveal his presence to us I'm sure you have some great answers to that and have a fabulous tell us what you think about the question and you know that it's something truly to drink about I mean to think about happy Bur
