These three steps mirror what our sages teach us, that there are three two millennia periods.

The first two millennia are called creation and chaos (God’s creation and man’s chaos.)

The second two millennia are called Torah (for in it, Abraham starts living a moral life enshrined in the Ten Commandments carried by the Jewish people into Israel emerging as a nation of ethics and principles.)

However quite amazingly, the last two thousand years (corresponding to two thousand years of quite literally inhumane torture to the Jewish people) are called two thousand years of redemption?!?!

You see, these are the three steps which each person will experience toward their personal redemption.

For we begin life at creation – we exist, but we are chaotic – we then learn how to behave – but this behavior is superimposed, to be redeemed, we need to accept, develop.

But between the process of personal growth, of integrating a new paradigm, always is the pain of loss; for nothing grows without first shedding its shell.
