A few quotes from the Rabbi on 'Tzedakah and Healing'
in which he clarifies that Man is free and therefore deserves dignity and is responsible for the dignity of others.
We have learnt that moral liberty indeed follows from the Torah and provides, to our mind, one of the beautiful explanations against the belief attributed to the Law of Moses as being primitive and arbitrary ruling, as it were.
The idea of human dignity created in Judaism created would be entirely meaningless without the triumphant declaration of liberty. Man is free; he therefore requires constant perfecting.
Israel and Humanity, Chapter 2, Human Dignity, p.126, Harav Kook Institute Press, Jerusalem, 1967
