Moses then proceeded to describe the revelation of G-d at the Giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai.
Overcoming the Limits of Creation
אַתָּה הָרְאֵתָ לָדַעַת כִּי ה' הוּא הָאֱלֹקִים אֵין עוֹד מִלְּבַדּוֹ:
(דברים ד:לה)
[Moses told the Jewish people that at Mount Sinai,] “You were shown in order to know that G d is the only deity. There is nothing other than Him.”
Deuteronomy 4:35
By revealing His essence, which is beyond Creation, G‑d
enabled us to transcend the limits of nature, as well. In order to overcome
life’s challenges and tests, we need only remind ourselves that “there is
nothing other than Him,” i.e., that nothing can constitute a real obstacle to
fulfilling G‑d’s intentions, since everything, in the final analysis, is part
of G‑d’s essence. Evoking this awareness elevates our Divine consciousness to
the level of truly perceiving G‑d’s essence everywhere. This, in turn, serves
to hasten the Messianic Redemption, when “the glory of G‑d will be revealed and
all flesh will see it together.”1
