Why is one day holier than another, when the light of the sun shines on every day of the year? By the Lord’s decision they were made different; He arranged the season and feasts.

Some of these He chose to make holy, others He made ordinary days. All human beings come from clay just as Adam himself was formed. In the fullness of His wisdom the Lord made each one unique and diversified his conditions.

Some He made holy, keeping them near to Himself. Others He cursed and humiliated, removing them from where they were.

As clay in the hand of the potter to be molded as he pleases, so are all in the hands of the Creator to be dealt with as He sees fit.

Good is the opposite of evil, and life, of death, and the sinner is the opposite of the upright. Consider all the works on the Most High and you will see how they go in pairs, by opposites.
