Why arrogance is the satan’s primary tool

By zevi770 · June 25, 2013

The reason why arrogance is the satan’s primary tool, is because unity is God’s goal, for people to be humble/united; arrogance in contrast breaks the bonds of identification – in fact John Gottman a primary researcher into marriage writes – one of the four signs of divorce is, when one spouse begins to believe they’re superior to the other; for you cannot unite with whom you feel is inferior to you – hence as the Talmud teaches, arrogance induced from Torah study is poison, and one great Kabbalist said of a group who studies for arrogance motives, that after every page of Talmud they study, their smell (for in the spiritual realm arrogance stinks) can be smelled from afar!
