The strange and wonderful Book of Job treats of the same subject as we are discussing; its contents are a fiction, conceived for the purpose of explaining the different opinions which people hold on Divine Providence. . . .

I will discuss it as fully as possible; and I will also tell you the words of our Sages that suggested to me the explanation of this great poem.
I think government has a major role to play in helping us with the pursuit of happiness.
