This
principle of 'run and return' are part of a broader context of 'form
and material'. The form is given supremacy over the material'.
Here
you can see a contrast between the Torah view and the world view.
The Torah presents a completely different reality.
The
world says, 'the human being identifies his presence and all the
stuff around him and he comes to know it by his discovery...' This
misses the truth that, 'all that exists is brought into existence,
and the fact that we know about it is because it is being shown to
us.' This is the Torah view.
Nothing
in the world, 'just happens to be'. The world is a creation.
The
initiator goes along with the entire process.
We
say, 'Okay God you made me, now I want to be associated with You. If
you don't give me mitzvoth/channels of connection then I don't have
the real thing... without that I won't have anything...'
And
this is a direct connection to Him.
