"The ongoing existence of the world is an abnormal state"
“The creation of the universe was not a onetime event.
From the moment that it came into being, the world is continually created anew at every moment.
The ongoing existence of the world is an abnormal state, one that demands a consistent, creative force to keep it in existence.
Existence requires the constant power of creation to give it being and to construct it at every moment.”
–Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz
From Learning from the Tanya by Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz
