🧐Torah and Quantum Mechanics Parallels

The provided text, an excerpt from an article by Rabbi Shlomo Ezagui, explores potential parallels between the principles of Torah and the discoveries of quantum mechanics. It suggests that core quantum ideas like the impact of observation on reality, the nature of potential and actualization, and the limits of human understanding are reflected in ancient Jewish law and thought. Examples cited, such as the rules for a mikvah (ritual bath) and the prohibition of kilayim (mixing species), are presented to illustrate how the Torah seems to anticipate concepts found in modern physics, particularly the idea that observation and perspective can influence outcomes. The author posits that the Torah's teachings are not arbitrary rules but rather are deeply aligned with the fundamental workings of the universe.
