The Small Voice of God

Rav Sheshes

Royalty on earth is like royalty in the heavens.

As it is written about God's revelation to Elijah the Prophet on Mount Horeb:
Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord
And, behold, the Lord passed by, and a
great and strong wind rent the mountains,
and broke in pieces the rocks before the Lord

---

but the Lord was not in the wind.
And after the wind an earthquake;
but the Lord was not in the earthquake;
And after the earthquake a fire;
but the Lord was not in the fire;
And after the fire a still small voice.

---

And it was so. When Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in
his mantle and went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave.
God's revelation was specifically at the moment of silence.
