GEN382 If we look into the Bible, from the very first we see that God monitors the actions of man.  After he sins man tries to hide from God, but to no avail, since God is aware of all the actions of Adam and Eve.  When Cain tries to “pay dumb” with God after killing Abel, God says that He hears Abel’s blood screaming from the ground. Genesis 4:9-10.  In Jeremiah 23:24, God asks rhetorically if it is possible for man to hide himself and for God not to know.  Psalms 44:22 says that God knows all secrets in man’s heart.  In his parting words to his son Solomon 1 Chronicles 28:9, King David admonishes his son to obey God fully because God knows all the emotions in man’s heart and all thoughts in man’s head.  One of the basic principles of Judaism, set forth by Maimonides, is that God is indeed aware of all of man’s actions and knows all the thoughts of each person. Principles of Faith #10.  Not only is God aware of man’s thought and actions, but these actions are recorded.  When a person dies, this “videotape” plays back man’s entire life, for him to be judged after death.  Taanit 11a.  It is clear, then, that the Jewish view is that God does indeed watch us always and is aware of our thoughts and deeds.  AMEMEI 84
