Caring about Real Consequences rather than Deducing or Moralizing


Ideally, God would issue specific commands for each situation. Second best is the law.… 

[R]easoning is... an attempt to fathom the will of God when he has not specifically expressed it in the case under consideration… [I]n this light… all reasoning… must be conducted with… the constant awareness that what we take as the divine will may not be it.

Michael Wyschogrod, The Body of Faith, p.188
