If the holy books say that in Kaf HaKella a soul is flinged form one end of the universe to the other, does that imply that the Torah claims the universe to be finite?

Listen, this is an excellent question that shows you're thinking deeply about what the Torah teaches. Yes, the Torah absolutely tells us that the universe is finite, not infinite. When we talk about Kaf HaKela, where the destructive angels slingshot a soul from one end of the universe to the other, this is not just a mashal or some abstract concept. It's real, and it tells us something profound about creation itself. The Gemara in Masechet Chagigah teaches us that when HaKadosh Baruch Hu created the universe, it started as a single point that began expanding. And here's the critical part: Hashem roared at the heavens and commanded them "Dai!" - "Enough!" - and they stopped expanding. This is why one of Hashem's names is El Shaddai, the God who said "Dai," who said "stop." The heavens were the first to fear Hashem, which is why we call it Yirat Shamayim, fear of Heaven. So the universe has boundaries. It's not continuing to expand forever like the scientists claim with their Big Bang theory. They got part of it right - yes, it started from a point and expanded - but they're wrong when they say it keeps expanding. The Torah tells us clearly: Hashem stopped it. Everything in creation has a limit. Even the vastness of the heavens and earth were finished, meaning they have an end. This is exactly what makes Kaf HaKela so terrifying. The souls of the wicked are literally flung from one actual end of the physical universe to the other actual end, back and forth, with destructive angels beating them throughout the journey. It's not theoretical. It's not symbolic. It's real punishment in a real, finite universe that Hashem created with precise boundaries.
