Gershom Scholem guides the reader though the central themes in the intricate history of the Kabbalah, clarifying the relations between mysticism and established religious authority, the mystics' interpretation of the Torah and their attempts to discover the hidden meaning underlying Scripture, the tension between the philosophical and the mystical concepts of God, and the symbolism employed in mystical religion.

Work Description

Scholems Studien zur Kabbala – der jüdischen mystisch-theosophischen Geheimlehre, die mit dem Anspruch auftritt, alte Offenbarung zu sein – sind ein faszinierender Beitrag zum Verständnis der Geschichte und Psychologie des Judentums. Die wiederkehrenden Bilder und Symbole einer Bewegung, deren esoterische Lehren über Jahrhunderte in verschiedenen Schulen verbreitet wurden, lassen sich nicht allein begrifflich ausschöpfen. Scholem deutet sie aus einem lebendigen Zusammenhang der mystischen Tradition.
