Very nice to know the mechanism of krias Yam Suf (or better yet to have the arrogance to THINK that we know it because tomorrow someone will come up with a different explanation). But WHY did it happen just when am Yisroel needed it to happen?
Why did it happen? Because it was the ratzon Hashem. There is no question there. That doesnt discount the explanation. Its a cool explanation IMO, but then again, I am geeky and like science.
Torah shows how EVERYTHING in creation is a miracle; the very fact that we are here and can do His will and create as He does is the biggest miracle of all.
Actually, I think NOTHING is a “miracle” – everything is just ratzon Hashem. Hashem can do everything equally – the same way he can split the sea, he can make grass grow. The difference is to US in how we view it. To us, since the sea doesn’t split every day it seems like a miracle.
Itzik, are you OK today? You seem more snippy than usual.
