About This Item
Edison, New Jersey: Castle, 1997. 221 pp, 8 1/2" H. "Daniel Matt - an internationally respected authority on Jewish Mysticism - has gathered together the most important, delightful, and profound passages from all the literature of Kabbalah in this extraordinary presentation, elegantly rendered with poetic nuances, exotic imagery, and bold innovation. Beautifully introduced with lucid analysis and vital historical information, (it) offers insightful accounts of the primary aspects of Jewish mysticism, including Ein Sof (the radical transcendence of God), the sefirot (the ten divine attributes), and the Shekhinah (the feminine aspect of God). Selections of text are rendered with clarity and an eye for the magical. (This) is a crucial and momentous contribution to the normally esoteric world of Jewish mysticism." Light wrinkling at the bottom of the spine, very light browning to the edges of the text block, a few pages with tiny tears at the fore-edge of the untrimmed pages. Dust jacket has light wrinkling at the top/bottom of the spine and flap-folds, a soft crease at the top corner of the front flap.. Not Signed. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good.
