The World's Most Advanced Camera is a Poor Imitation of the Eye: 5 Points to Ponder

The Most Advanced Cameras in the World

A person can live a long life full of insights without even once realizing that they possess a pair of wonderful eyes.

Pairs of cameras. The most advanced cameras in the world, made by man, are primitive scraps compared to the amazing capabilities of the eye. Not a single camera in the world can work for a hundred years, twenty-four hours a day, without malfunction. A small, compact camera with automatic light intensity adjustment, automatic display distance adjustment, and an external system that cleans the lens (tears).

A person can walk all their life with this enormous wonder — seeing eyes — without being amazed!

Take note, we live with a pair of miraculous devices that surpass all imagination. We don’t have to pay exorbitant sums for them; they don’t take up space, don’t need battery replacements, and don’t require assembly in the morning and turning off at night. They work quietly, without beeps or squeaks — yet still, we don’t get excited. No wonder, no thrill...

Why?

Because we don’t think, we don’t observe. We're so busy with daily life that we don’t have time to think about anything.

Stop. Think, observe: you woke up in the morning and see the amazing world we live in, you see your children and your wife — rejoice, get excited, say thank you! To whom? To the Creator who created for you a pair of eyes to see the amazing world we live in.

A Stunning White Carpet

When the world is cold at a temperature of minus eight degrees, all the sprouts buried in the ground could freeze to death, causing irreversible damage to the crop.

How do you overcome this problem? Imagine a scientist offering a "simple" solution: spread a thick carpet, with trapped air in it, over the entire cold area. This carpet would create an insulation barrier between the low air temperature, which is minus eight degrees, and the ground temperature, which is zero degrees, thus protecting the seeds and delicate sprouts.

A nice solution, but impossible to implement on vast expanses. This might be true for us, but not for the Creator, who created the tiny ice crystals, combining them into snowflakes as they fall.

Billions upon billions of such flakes land side by side and one on top of the other, creating a stunning white carpet filled with air. This carpet protects the plants: while the temperature above it can be minus eight degrees, the temperature of the soil beneath it does not drop below zero degrees, preserving all the seeds and delicate sprouts, as if covered with a soft and pleasant blanket.

Could it be that this wonderful process, indicating a guiding and caring hand, was created by itself, without a creator and planner?

An Eternal Covenant

The Torah explicitly states, over 3,300 years ago (Deuteronomy 29:21-24): "And the later generation, your children who rise after you, and the foreigner who comes from a distant land... will say, why has Hashem done this to this land? What is the reason for this great wrath? And they will answer, because they abandoned the covenant of Hashem, the God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt."

Here is a clear prophecy that the nations will think that Hashem has broken the covenant with the children of Israel. And indeed, the wonder is that both of the world's major religions make the same claim against Israel. The Christian religion claimed for about 2,000 years that Hashem abandoned the people of Israel and chose the Christians, and the Muslims claimed for about 1,400 years that Hashem abandoned the people of Israel and chose Islam...

If only they were honest, they would see that the Torah foresaw the claim of the nations in advance, and in contrast, promised Israel (Leviticus 26:44-45): "Yet despite this, while they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject or abhor them to destroy them completely, breaking My covenant with them, for I am Hashem their God. And I will remember for them the covenant of the first ones, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, to be their God, I am Hashem." And indeed, their eyes see that even after 2,000 years of exile — the people of Israel live and exist!

The Creator declares in the Torah that in the future the nations will think that Hashem has broken the covenant with the children of Israel, but promises and ensures this is not true — and both came to be. Who can pledge to an illogical and paradoxical prophecy like this?! And who can stand by their promise and ensure it is fulfilled?! Only the Creator and ruler of history is capable of this!

Who Created These?

The most advanced recorder in the world is a poor imitation of the ear.

The most sophisticated digital camera in the world is insignificant compared to the eye.

The largest supercomputer does not approach the complexity of the human brain.

The most advanced crane is a poor imitation of the arm.

People designed and created these — cameras, recorders, computers, cranes. In contrast, who planned and created all these organs — the eye, ear, brain, and arm?

By observing the human body, it is clear we are dealing with a superhuman creator with infinite genius and immense powers...

Mosquito

Would you agree that the more complex and sophisticated a product is, the more it testifies to the greatness and wisdom of its creator? Let's take a closer look at the mosquito, which many see as a small and not particularly complex creature:

The mosquito, despite its small size, contains a heart, stomach, intestines, blood vessels, and nerves. It can pierce our skin and feeds on our blood, which is why we feel compelled to kill it. For its survival, it has the ability to fly at 4 km/h and is created in a minuscule weight so we don’t feel it landing or standing on our body.

During its bite, it secretes into our body an anesthetic substance (like a dentist), and only after it flies away does the anesthetic effect wear off, leaving us in pain, lifting a hand to kill the mosquito, which is already far from us, watching from afar as we hit... ourselves.

If we are impressed by the planning and order in the body of this tiny creature called a mosquito, how much more should we marvel at larger and more complex creations existing in the world such as the human body, the solar system, the animal kingdom, and plant life, understanding that the more complex the creation — the more it testifies to the greatness of the Creator, as it is said "How great are Your works, Hashem; Your thoughts are very deep" (Psalms 92:6).
