Yitayningwut: I checked out what Panentheism means. I can’t understand how you can compare Panentheism to the concept of Diveikus in Judaism. Panentheism means that the whole universe is part of God not only peoples souls. Panentheism attributes the physical world to God’s being. L’havdil, the concept of Deveikus in Judaism means that only the souls of the Jewish nation are one spiritual essence with God. Also the concept means that through unification, Jewish souls become part of God kaviyochol, not that Jewish souls are inheritly a part God ch”v. Addditionally, the unification of God with each individual Jew is not a ‘mitzius’ that happened at Matan Torah; but rather it is a new occurence that God constantly does with each individual Jew through the Jew’s actions of connecting himself with God.
