Synopsis
The Kabbalah has long languished in darkness, unknown outside the confines of Jewish Mysticism and the communities who practiced it. But today, the Kabbalah is well-known but often misunderstood.
The story of Kabbalah is as old as Judaism itself, with many of the ideas present in the Hebrew Scriptures interpreted in the canon of Kabbalah. Applying Jewish theological premises and Neo-Platonist cosmology, the Kabbalists created a systematic interpretation of familiar Creation Narrative in the Book of Genesis, which today illuminates and serves Judaism. At the same time, Kabbalistic concepts have entered mainstream consciousness with great interest expressed in mainstream Christianity and even in modern science.
You'll find in these pages a completely different way of approaching the mystery of Divinity, the purpose of humanity in Creation, and how we can, in our small, creaturely way, partner with God toward the final healing of Creation and the return of the Messiah and the dawn of Olam Haba (the World to Come).
Kabbalah for Beginners, an Introduction to Jewish Mysticism, is my personal invitation to you to enter a world of bold exploration and humble introspection that has led, over many centuries, to a unique vision for humanity living in intimate relation to the Creator.
