What is the deep spiritual significance when illness or a major problem reaches its peak? In this profound teaching, Rabbi Yoshiyahu Pinto explains that these intense moments are times of Divine Judgment, where a person’s fate (life or death, success or failure) hangs in the balance.
Rabbi Pinto discusses the Zohar’s perspective on why even the wicked might recover, emphasizing that G*d has His own calculations. However, the general rule is that the height of difficulty is a critical time for judgment. These are precisely the moments requiring intense prayer and seeking salvation (Yeshua).
Crucially, Rabbi Pinto advises proactive spiritual preparation. Don’t wait until you are in deep trouble to perform repentance (Teshuva) and give charity (Tzedakah). Using the powerful Talmudic adage, “A prisoner cannot free himself from prison,” he explains that once engulfed by a problem, escaping its grasp becomes much harder. Prepare beforehand to navigate life’s inevitable challenges.
