כִּי כְּשֶׁמְּדַבֵּר לִפְנֵי הַקָּדוֹשׁ־בָּרוּךְ־הוּא וּמְפָרֵשׁ שִׂיחָתוֹ בִּטְעָנוֹת וּבַקָּשׁוֹת, רוֹצֶה לְנַצֵּחַ אֶת הַקָּדוֹשׁ־בָּרוּךְ־הוּא כִּבְיָכוֹל, וְהַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ יֵשׁ לוֹ תַּעֲנוּג מִזֶּה. עַל כֵּן שׁוֹלֵחַ לוֹ דִּבּוּרִים, שֶׁיּוּכַל לְנַצֵּחַ אוֹתוֹ, כִּבְיָכוֹל, כְּדֵי לְקַבֵּל הַתַּעֲנוּג. כִּי בְּלֹא זֶה בְּוַדַּאי לֹא הָיָה אֶפְשָׁר לְבָשָׂר וָדָם לְנַצֵּחַ אֶת הַקָּדוֹשׁ־בָּרוּךְ־הוּא, אַךְ הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ עַצְמוֹ שׁוֹלֵחַ וּמַזְמִין לוֹ דִּבּוּרִים וּטְעָנוֹת לְנַצֵּחַ אוֹתוֹ כַּנַּ"ל:

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
When a person speaks before the Holy One and explains his words using argumentation and entreaties, he wants to defeat God, so to speak. The Holy One takes pleasure from this. He therefore sends him words with which to defeat Him, so to speak, so that He might receive the pleasure. For without this, it would surely have been impossible for a man of flesh and blood to defeat the Holy One. But God Himself sends and makes available to him these words and arguments, so that he might defeat Him, as above.
