Step 95 - Unique person

The second word
ShAdam - that a person.
The Rambam explains the signifigance of the word Adam in this formula.
People are the only species in the world who can think , choose & decide to do what's right. We have the priveleged gift of Free-will to choose to follow the path of virtue & perfection.
This principle is the great foundation of Torah & Mitzvos.
***
But the Rambam asks - How can a person choose to do something that Hashem does not want like a sin ?
The Rambam answers that is Hashems choice to allow & enable a person to make certain decisions & that is why he is held accountable for his decisions. There are rewards & punishments.
Now may be a good time for a gem of Torah study.
