Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents important topics regarding the more mystical trend of Kabbalah—the ecstatic Kabbalah. It includes the mystical union, the world of imagination, and concentration as a spiritual technique. The emphasis in the text is on the interaction between the "original" Spanish stage of Kabbalah and Muslim mysticism in the East, mainly in the Galilee. The influence of the Kabbalistic-Sufic synthesis on the later developments of Jewish mysticism is traced, thereby providing a more precise understanding of the history of Kabbalah as an interplay between the theosophical and ecstatic mystical experiences.

Book Synopsis Moses Cordovero's Introduction to Kabbalah by : Moses ben Jacob Cordovero
Download or read book Moses Cordovero's Introduction to Kabbalah written by Moses ben Jacob Cordovero and published by KTAV Publishing House, Inc.. This book was released on 1994 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1587, Moses Cordovero's now classic introduction to Kabbalah, Or Ne'erav, was intended to serve several purposes; it was meant both to provide a justification for the study of Kabbalah and to encourage that study by providing detailed instructions for interested laymen on how to go about that study; indeed, it was intended as a precis of Cordovero's much larger Pardes Rimmonim. In many ways, Cordovero was ideally suited to compose such a work. His teacher of rabbinics was no other than R. Joseph Caro, author of the Shulhan Arukh, which rapidly became the halakhic code par excellence. His master in Kabbalah was Solomon ha-Levi Alkabetz, whose sister he subsequently married. The result of his studies with both was no less than a kabbalistic "code", a systematic kabbalistic theology of the Zohar, the basic text of Jewish mysticism. But this work was too large, and too complex to be easily mastered. Moreover, it assumed too much previous knowledge to serve as an introduction to the subject; hence the need for Or Ne'erav. Or Ne'erav succeeded in fulfilling all these purposes, and has remained a classic introduction to the study of Kabbalah - and is used as such to this day. Dr. Robinson's accurate but readable translation is the first English rendition of this essential work. -- Back cover.
Download or read book Kabbalah written by Byron L. Sherwin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2006 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kabbalah: An Introduction to Jewish Mysticism is a clear, accessible 'primer' and introduction to the major teachings of the Jewish mystics, to various dominant forms of Jewish mystical experiences, as well as to many of the significant texts that constitute classical Jewish mystical literature, and to their authors. Rather than provide an historical approach, this introduction to Jewish mysticism delineates five 'models' of Jewish mystical theology and experience: Normal Mysticism, Mystical Intimacy, Addressing God's Needs, Drawing Down Divine Grace, and Prophetic Kabbalah. Sherwin not only presents primary texts in translation, but also offers an explanation of each selection and provides a bibliography for further study.

Download or read book An Introduction to the Study of the Kabbalah written by William Wynn Westcott and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to the Study of the Kabbalah, by English coroner, ceremonial magician, theosophist and Freemason William Wynn Westcott, was originally published after delivery in the form of lectures to a Society of Hermetic Students in 1888.The late Victorian period, due to rising new age movements, saw a renewed interested in non-western religions and the occult sciences, one of those being the Hebrew mysticism of the Kabbalah. Westcott felt he needed to draw attention to its dogma after his many years of study and translation of the canon, and his work with the Rosicrucian Society. Also due to the fact that there was still a problem with the opacity and complexity of much of its language, and a simplified introduction was still required. The work looks at the key texts and concepts of the Kabbalah, and is ideal for the absolute beginner, or those who seek to refresh their outline of the topic.
