Philosophy, thus, always moves away from words into mystical experience, away from laws and commands into feelings.

Jerusalem's wall is real, but it's also symbolic," he said. "In a way, we destroyed the wall ourselves by relying on idols instead of on God. We destroyed it by desecrating His Sabbaths.
