“On the Path a Person Wants to Take”: A Key to Understanding Free Choice

What does “a person is led on the path they want to take” mean for free will?

This discussion examines free choice, desire, direction, and the consequences of repeated choices. It keeps the original Torah question at the center and connects it to the mapped real-life setting without adding a ruling, factual claim, or modern conclusion that is not present in the canonical source.
