Ratzon HaShem

At first, the Ratzon HaShem expressed itself on the physical level. A divine force acted, and Nature reacted. Then the Ratzon HaShem withdrew from the physical level, at the hour 12, leaving mankind looking for it, for Him. Human culture developed, not knowing the purpose, until the "time of Torah." Then individuals from Am Yisrael understood, and acted according to the Ratzon HaShem. But not the nation as a whole. So the nation had to be tricked. In the final days, the Vilna Gaon understood, and acted according to the Ratzon HaShem. But not the nation, and so again the nation was tricked. As were the other nations. The wise, the really wise, will understand.
