Blind Men and Faith

Posted on Friday, 7, August, 2009Saturday, 21, September, 2019 by Rabbi

Every day people are touched by the wonders of science and technology. The instant gratification of needs leads many to take faith for granted. Sometimes we are so shortsighted that we don’t see all of the many gifts around us and our faith suffers.

Blind men were brought to a house that had been prepared for them in all respects. In it everything had been placed in its most suitable position and arranged as best suited their requirements and needs. In it had been prepared beneficial ointments and a wise physician to treat them and improve their sight. But they disregarded the treatment of their eyes and paid no attention to the physician who was engaged in treating them, but went about the house doing harmful things because of their blindness.

Wherever they went they stumbled over those objects that had been prepared for their benefit and fell on their faces. Some of them were injured and some sustained fractures, and they suffered greatly and were in a very bad way.

Blind Men and Faith

Then they complained about the house owner and the builder, and complained about his deeds, for to them he seemed to have done everything badly and wrongly, supposing that he had no good and kind intentions for them but had only wished to cause them injury and suffering. Indeed, this led them to lose faith in the goodness and kindness of the owner of the house.

May all your tales end with Shalom (peace)
