The Medieval Hebrew Kabbalah Or Secret Tradition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162913452)

The Medieval Hebrew Kabbalah Or Secret Tradition is a book written by Charles F. Horne that delves into the mystical and esoteric teachings of the Kabbalah in medieval Hebrew culture. The Kabbalah, also known as the Jewish mysticism, is a complex system of thought that explores the nature of God, the universe, and the human soul. Horne's book explores the history and development of the Kabbalah from its origins in the early Middle Ages to its flourishing in the 16th century. He examines the key texts and figures of the Kabbalah, including the Zohar, the Sefer Yetzirah, and the writings of Moses de Leon and Isaac Luria. The book also explores the various schools of thought within the Kabbalah, such as the practical Kabbalah and the theoretical Kabbalah, and how they influenced Jewish thought and practice. Horne also discusses the impact of the Kabbalah on other mystical traditions, such as Christian mysticism and Hermeticism. Overall, The Medieval Hebrew Kabbalah Or Secret Tradition provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the history, teachings, and influence of the Kabbalah in medieval Hebrew culture. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Jewish mysticism, medieval history, or the history of esoteric thought.THIS 194 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Sacred Books and Early Literature of the East: Medieval Hebrew; The Midrash; The Kabbalah, by Charles F.
