• The non-observant majority in Judaism today: an explanation
The time limit that G-d has put on this world is 6,000 years, and it's during these years we earn our World to Come. Yichud and mishpat are opposing forces. Mishpat works with its feet on the ground and its head in the air; yichud works with its head in the ground and its feet in the air. They work concurrently, but yichud enters in through mishpat. Mishpat works to correct the bread of shame, while yichud works to ensure that the hatava will be manifested in the end.
