Topics include: The symbolism of gold, silver and copper in the Tabernacle; the debate between the philosophers and the kabbalists as to whether G‑d can create a square circle; and how the scarlet, turquoise and purple wool of the tapestries of the Tabernacle represent the harmonization of G‑dly attributes in creation.

I smiled when I heard this because I know my G-d and all thing are possible with G-d. Thanks for the information.

Yes g-d CAN make a square circle - WITHOUT CHANGING THE LAWS OF NATURES! this is beyond our knowledge - but that is precisely the point. BECUASE G-D IS INFINITE. Like our sages say: G-d can put a elephant through the eye of a needle (without making the elephant smaller or vice versa). So, we can't understand HOW this is done, but we can accept that since G-d is infinite, he can change the laws of nature, right? But this is where we take it a step further: Can G-d put a elephant through the eye of a needle (without making the elephant smaller or vice versa), BUT WITHOUT CHANGING THE LAWS OF NATURE? Now THIS is mind boggling, and completely not understandable in our finite minds. Sure, since G-d is infinite, he can change the laws of nature. But can G-d go against the laws of nature without changing the laws of nature?! Well most people would say, of course not! That's impossible! But YES. G-d CAN do so. How?! But this is precisely the point. G-D IS INFINITE.

Thanks for the interesting lecture

G-d cannot make a square a circle because He created pi which is an irrational number. G-d controlled His creation by the laws of nature He installed. As it is stated in Psalms "Chok natan ve'lo yaavor" (a law was established and shall not be abrogated.)
