EXILE EDICTS

[17a top] Gemarah: The verse ,”G-d understood the Torah’s way and He knew its place,” means that The Holy One, blessed be He, knew that Israel could not withstand the Romans’ decrees, so He rose and exiled them to Babylonia instead.

Prac-T-cal Tidbits: Even when it seems as though Hashem is dealing harshly with us, in reality, He is really doing us favors. We should always try to recognize the good in everything that happens.
