“The Gemora in Sotah (21a) tells us that the Torah protects us from pain and affliction”
So next time I have a toothache should I simply learn Torah instead of going to the dentist? Of course not! Both Torah and other activities are required everyday in the life of a Jew. Such a blanket statement makes it sound like one can just go to a Beis Medrash and never worry about food, tuition, or health because the Torah will provide it for you.
