Purim is the holiday of the unknown. It is about experiencing uncertainty, darkness, and even fear—yet knowing, deep inside, that something miraculous is forming. The Jewish people faced an existential threat, an annihilation decree looming over them. From their perspective, everything seemed lost. But in the background, Hashem was orchestrating a salvation beyond their comprehension. Only in hindsight did they realize how every detail was divinely arranged.
Our lives often mirror this experience. We stand at junctures where the future is unclear, and fear grips us because we cannot predict the outcome. But Purim reminds us that even when we cannot see it, divine providence is at work.
