For the Miracles<\/p>\n

“Watch: She fell in her car 25 feet with only minor bruises\u2026”<\/p>\n

The miracles that we’ve become used to, or that we’ve been forced to watch on the news sites starving for our clicks, are little, local miracles: somebody was saved, or managed to survive. A group of people succeeded in having a conversation for ten straight minutes, without anybody looking at their phone.<\/p>\n

The miracles of the generation of the desert, though, were something else altogether. They were filled with fireworks. Now the sea was splitting, now water spurting out of a rock, slaking the thirst of 60 myriads. Suddenly something fell from the skies, who’s taste was out of this world, while squadrons of quail landed (perhaps already roasted like at the supermarket) exactly at the right spot, day after day. And that’s not even mentioning the pillar of cloud and the pillar of fire that accompanied the people for forty long years. \u00a0<\/p>\n

On the face of things, we have what to be jealous about. Those Israelites got up in the morning and felt God’s miracles every waking moment. What’s more awesome than that? But if we pause for a moment, we’ll realize that all these miracles were actually immediate responses to some existential crisis of the people. Without splitting the Sea of Reeds, the Egyptians would have slaughtered them; without the pillars of fire and cloud, the Israelis wouldn’t have been able to find their in even 400 years; with no manna and quail, they would’ve starved to death; and the water from the rock saved the people from death by thirst.<\/p>\n

So do we really want to see miracles like that?<\/p>\n
