Evolution

"Evolution sheds light on all the ways of God. All existence evolves and ascends…Its ascent is general as it is in particulars. It ascends toward the height of the absolute good. Obviously the good and the comprehensive [whole] all go together. Existence is destined to reach a point when the whole will assimilate the good in all its constituted particulars…No particularity will remain outside, not a spark will be lost from the ensemble...The doctrine of evolution…has a greater affinity with the secret teachings of the Kabbalah than all other philosophies."

HaRav Avraham Yitzhak HaKohen Kook -- Orot Hakodesh 2, p.555

Rav Kook (1865-1935)
