    Haman, his trauma and epigenetics.


    Most likely haman suffered from great trauma for his enslavement, early life of poverty, as well as his family history and epigenetics, especially, since that he heils from the descendants of amalek.If this is the case why is he held accountable for his abhorrent and evil ways and deeds?

    can he not get some dispensation because of his experience of trauma and suffering?

    There's fear/yirah of punishment for aveirahs

    And then there's fear of losing something, like a relationship. 

    Notice, no one takes great care to safeguard some pocket change. But everyone takes great care tp safeguard a huge stash of cash. Ditto for a worthless trinket compared to a diamond. 

    So too, the more precious a relationship the more one must safeguard it, the more fear there is of losing it.

    And the relationship with Hashem is the MOST precious.  

    Except, even if we don't safeguard it properly,  He will never abandon us...

    "All beginnings are difficult"

    And Amalek was the "beginning" of sinas chinam, baseless hatred. Which still exists today, e.g. Hamas who just hate and want to kill Jews for no logical reason. 

    "Zeh l'oomah Zeh". Everything has its Polar opposite.  

    So too, therefore we have Avraham Avinu who was the first to recognize Hashem on his own (yeshiva of Shem and Ever notwithstanding) and sought, based on ahavas chinam to spread monotheism. 

    These 2 beginnings by Amalek and Avraham continue until today as we can see......until Moshiach comes when the good will replace the bad
