The Zohar, or Book of Splendour, is the foundation text of the
Kabbalah, the famous theosophical teaching central to Jewish
mysticism. This marvellous book, attributed to a 2nd-century rabbi,
Schimeon Ben Yochai, was at first kept secret and only brought to
wider notice by the 13th-century Spanish rabbi Moses de Leon.
Kabbalah is the principal source of Jewish mysticism and has
inspired centuries of mystical experience, influenced initially by
personal encounters with God, such as those of Ezekiel and Moses in
the Hebrew Bible. Its influence has penetrated Christian
esotericism, and today Jews and non-Jews alike derive spiritual
meaning from the Kabbalah. This fine and authoritative translation
of essential passages in the Zohar is by Samuel Liddel MacGregor
Mathers, a key figure in the Order of the Golden Dawn. The foreword
is by the renowned Kabbalah scholar Z'ev ben Shimon Halevi. The
Sacred Text series offers essential selections from the major
writings of the world's spiritual traditions in reliable and
accessible translations - editions to treasure and inspire.
