Pirkei Avot 5

בַּעֲשָׂרָה מַאֲמָרוֹת נִבְרָא הָעוֹלָם. וּמַה תַּלְמוּד לוֹמַר, וַהֲלֹא בְמַאֲמָר אֶחָד יָכוֹל לְהִבָּרְאוֹת, אֶלָּא לְהִפָּרַע מִן הָרְשָׁעִים שֶׁמְּאַבְּדִין אֶת הָעוֹלָם שֶׁנִּבְרָא בַעֲשָׂרָה מַאֲמָרוֹת, וְלִתֵּן שָׂכָר טוֹב לַצַּדִּיקִים שֶׁמְּקַיְּמִין אֶת הָעוֹלָם שֶׁנִּבְרָא בַעֲשָׂרָה מַאֲמָרוֹת

With ten utterances the world was created. And what does this teach, for surely it could have been created with one utterance? But this was so in order to punish the wicked who destroy the world that was created with ten utterances, And to give a good reward to the righteous who maintain the world that was created with ten utterances.

.בֶּן בַּג בַּג אוֹמֵר, הֲפֹךְ בָּהּ וַהֲפֹךְ בָּהּ, דְּכֹלָּא בָהּ. וּבָהּ תֶּחֱזֵי, וְסִיב וּבְלֵה בָהּ, וּמִנַּהּ לֹא תָזוּעַ, שֶׁאֵין לְךָ מִדָּה טוֹבָה הֵימֶנָּה:

Ben Bag Bag said: Turn it over, and turn it over, for all is therein. And look into it; And become gray and old therein; And do not move away from it, for you have no better portion than it.

בֶּן הֵא הֵא אוֹמֵר, לְפוּם צַעֲרָא אַגְרָא

Ben He He said: According to this labor is the reward.

The Creature and the Prophet


And although the prophet had known the creature its entire life there came a moment in time that was experienced as a sudden rushing and flooding of feeling and emotion within the consciousness to the point of nearly debilitating.

The prophet for some reason felt great sorrow for the creature as if to understand its true nature; it's existence and inevitable downfall. Although the knowledge contained within the prophet could also see the greater good and the reason for it.

Perhaps the prophet felt a sudden urge of guilt somehow for failing to acknowledge what appeared to be this poor and helpless creature of God. Understanding and relating to it so many years ago; culminating an abundance of emotion waiting to be released.

The prophet though felt good for realizing his shortcomings and making amends with the creature prior to its demise which has not yet come to pass.

It still remains unclear to the prophet though how much of all this the creature itself actually understood of what it witnessed and whether or not the circumstances themselves may have been inadvertently exaggerated as well as any other meaning unintentionally overlooked.

But in the end the prophet felt good about what had transpired and that the entire revelation was more of a good thing in coming to terms regarding companionship with said creature of God.

The prophet reflecting upon the occasional eye contact with the creature, even somewhat prolonged at times, as if to garner some sort of understanding between the two, to be experienced by each in its own way, of course.
