Rabbi Shlomo Ezagui's article, 'Quantum Torah: Time's Flexibility in Jewish Law and Physics,' explores the surprising parallels between ancient Jewish law and modern quantum mechanics, specifically concerning the concept of time's flexibility. The author highlights the Jewish legal principle of breira, or retroactive clarification, exemplified by the eruv techumin (a rabbinic mechanism allowing for extended travel on Shabbat). This legal concept suggests that a present need can retroactively determine a past intention, as if that intention existed from the start. Ezagui then connects this to retrocausality in quantum physics, where future measurements can influence a particle's past behavior. The piece argues that both fields, through teshuvah (repentance) in Judaism and quantum phenomena, suggest a non-linear relationship between past, present, and future, emphasizing that current choices can impact not only what lies ahead but also how past events are understood or even shaped. Ultimately, the article posits that reality, guided by divine will, is more adaptable than commonly perceived, offering a profound and hopeful perspective on choice and destiny.
