A STUDENT ONCE ASKED HIS RABBI, "TEACHER, WHY DOES THE LORD
ALLOW EVIL IN THE WORLD?" "WITH SUCH A GOOD QUESTION,"
THE RABBI RESPONDED, "WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO RUIN IT WITH
AN ANSWER?" DESPITE THE TEACHER'S CLEVER QUIP, HIS DISCIPLE'S
QUESTION REMAINS AN APT ONE TODAY. THIS IS ESPECIALLY THE
CASE IN LIGHT OF THE CRIPPLING BLOWS AND NUMEROUS DEATHS
RESULTING FROM COVID-19 AS WELL AS IN VIEW OF THE FEAR
SURROUNDING THE VARIOUS NEW STRAINS INFILTRATING THE WORLD.
