<div dir="ltr"><<The classification of an event as mercy or justice is not an objective
one, but a subjective one. As you correctly note, it can change
depending on how wide your perspective is. My experience is that wider
perspective makes events seem more like mercy. As evidence I cite the
above ma'amar Hazal; distress narrows a person's horizons, making him
less able to take the wider perspective which may make him realize that
something was really good, and thus less able to accept nehamah.>><br><br>The Holocaust was subjectively just that no amount of sophistry can change it into something<br>of mercy when millions of little children are murdered<br clear="all">
