Description

Based on the way Derech Hashem lays out the structure of all reality, how do tov and rah, good and evil, come to be manifest in the world? If God is the ultimate source of all things, how can evil exist at all? Either saying God is the source of evil or saying that evil exists even though God is not its ultimate source sounds heretical! We struggle with these complex concepts and work them into the Ramchal's intricately presented structure of reality. (Part of HaMidrasha at QC, OU-JLIC's Torah learning program for women at Queens College.)
