As mentioned, the great works of the Torah are said to be assisted by the Divine. How is this to be distinguished from the notion that after the destruction of the first Holy Temple that Prophecy ceased? Secondly , we find apologetic statements issued by the very same Rabbis who claimed Divine Assistance for their conclusions in matters of Law, that they could not comment or intervene on certain matters as they weren't endowed with the necessary Ruach Hakodesh - Divine Spirit !?
We must conclude that Divine help with Prayers or intervention are different from Divine assistance in Torah . Why?
A possible answer is hinted at in the introduction to the "Ten Commandments ". In the line that introduces those famous words " I AM THE L_RD..." it says " and G-D said all of the following, to
repeat again?!
Since G-D was saying this directly to all the people , why was it necessary to have His Words repeated ?
The answer, presented in Yalkut Shimony, is that all Prophecies, including all the written Prophets and Writings of the TaNaCh, as well as all of the novel ideas of every Torah Scholar in every generation were included in the words of the Ten Commandments.
In other words, the Ten Commandments and the Five Books of the Torah comprise the entire
body of Torah Literature for all time . This is because the Ten Commandments were the Entire Communication that will ever take place between G-D and man regarding Torah Law.
Therefore, the Divine assistance with the Law, called Halacha, was just a revelation of the original Prophecy at Sinai . Anything outside of the Law required new Divine Spirit , something that became increasingly rare as time went on.
