WHY WAS SATAN CREATED?

[Music] well the uh the Christians like to say that the Satan uh went to war with Hashem and did not want to listen to him and uh thereby went to entice Adam and Eve uh that's a Christian thought because they believe that the the Satan is independent from Hashem meaning he has a power of his own that is against hem and in essence he's fighting Hashem this is complete nonsense no one is fighting Hashem none of the angels are fighting Hashem why because they are his servants if any Angel does anything against hem they get instantly destroyed it's not like us where we do things against hm but hm gives us more time uh so there is no angel that's fighting against AEM does this Angel do things that uh AEM doesn't necessarily want to happen meaning that it's not uh the desire of hem for it to happen sure but that's his job that's the job that hasem gave him meaning Hashem doesn't want you to sin and the Satan entices you to sin so he doesn't really want you to sin but yet he allows the Satan to entice you to sin because he pays the Satan if you will to entice you to sin he is the resistance because if it wasn't for the Satan you wouldn't have any desire to sin if you don't have any desire to sin there's no point to the whole world because everybody will be righteous so that's not the whole thing soem created the Satan in order to entice Us in order to entice ad Adam and Eve in order to entice us as a way to either reward or punish us in order to give this whole world a point if a wouldn't have sinned then there wouldn't be death in the world then there would the world would be perfect permanently in essence a purposeless world be a purposeless world the fact that they did Sin made the purpose begin at that point now does that mean that if wouldn't have sinned then the world would stay per perfect forever no because somebody else could have sinned that they would have produced would have enticed them and the purpose would have just simply started later on so it's not NE we can't just blame them on everything okay it started with them but that's not necessarily the only thing like if it wouldn't have started with them it could have started with Seth it could have started with K it could have started with Steve it could have started with somewhere else okay so the point being is that hem sent the Satan gave the Satan a job in the world in order to to be the resistance like the weights you go to a gym you lift weights why do you lift weights because you want to you know break your muscles down in order for them to grow the more weight you lift the more you're breaking the muscles and if it's under control you can develop bigger muscles and bigger muscles the more resistance the more exercises and so on and so forth the more you develop Satan works the same way on a lower level person person that's simply a young person he gives them a Satan level one or two a person that is spiritually higher meaning he's more righteous doesn't have a smaller Satan rather has a bigger Satan meaning Rab's his evil inclination was much greater than all of us put together we think the opposite we think that the more righteous a person is the less evil inclination they have no it's the opposite why because he can lift more therefore the resistance is more just like if a guy is a bodybuilder he's not going to exercise with one pound weights why because it won't affect him for him to really develop his muscles he has to lift a lot more same concept with someone that's more righteous but needless to say whether it's for the really Ultra righteous people or the average Joe like us Satan exists as a resistance as something that's going to put pressure on you in order to justify either a reward or a punishment if you over overcome the resistance and you do the right thing then you deserve a reward for it because you overcame something if you fail then you deserve a punishment hence the reason of why you're in this world hence why there is choice that you have to make but the Satan itself is not given a uh free right to do whatever he wants whenever he wants without a price for himself now the bmov says there is a that says that the Satan after mhia s will be slaughtered by hem meaning in essence the Satan will be removed from his role and his ability to do evil and so on will be destroyed and he'll be punished if you will so the question is why would he be punished if he's doing his job if he's doing his job why is he punished right we just said for the last five minutes he he's doing his job so why is is there a teaching that says he's going to be punished he's going to be slaughtered when the mashia comes the answer is that says is that says that just like in Shabbat on P it's considered yum and uh you're not allowed to paint and you're not allowed to slaughter so why you not allowed to slaughter why to slaughter say not to kill yeah what else says because you're painting when you Slaughter an animal it's blood everywhere it's like painting the B says from there we learn this answer about the Satan that's how they learn things from things that we don't even think are related to said look Satan what does he do he enticed you to sin right he enti you to sin how does he entice you to sin by painting the sin like a mitvah he doesn't just say listen pig eat you're not going to eat if you have you know half of fear ofm you're not going to eat pig you're not going to eat they say what is he going to say say something say look you're allowed to go to uh this nightclub oh no Rabbi said no nightclub no that's Satan does Satan Paints the sin he Paints the sin like a mitvah and for that I'll get punished painting it like aah that's what says so point being is that again it's this part this part is something that he does let's say above and beyond his role in the world just like punished above and beyond his role but that's again not independent of hem to the extent where it's a uh like he is at war with hem it's not like a war with like the Christian thought it's something it's it's a manifestation of certain things that he does and uh but it's not a independent of hasem it's not a separate power from Hashem it's not like he can do something that is against theem none of that stuff exists it's just he is there to do his job but he's not a complete robot he's not a complete robot to the point where he just does when you press go he goes when he press off it's off he has some Independence uh within that role it's like uh what I would compare it to as a weak analogy perhaps but nonetheless an analogy is artificial intelligence AI that's what it's really like it's like it is a technology that's technically run by man but it develops uh over time to have some level of Independence this is something like it something like it at least that's the way I can think of now we're very excited to offer you the new bezem app 3.0 it's a newer faster app full of Torah lots
