Quote by Leo Tolstoy

The first and most difficult obstruction to the fulfillment

Summary

This quote suggests that the biggest obstacle in obeying God's law is the conflict between the existing laws of society and the principles of God's law. It implies that the prevailing laws are fundamentally contradictory to the values and guidelines set by God, making it difficult for individuals to align their actions accordingly. This creates a challenge for individuals who wish to uphold divine laws while also conforming to societal norms and regulations.
