Download or read book The Essential Zohar written by Rav P.S. Berg and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For thousands of years, no book has been more shrouded in mystery than the Zohar, yet no book offers us greater wisdom. The central text of Kabbalah, the Zohar is a commentary on the Bible’s narratives, laws, and genealogies and a map of the spiritual landscape. In The Essential Zohar, the eminent kabbalist Rav P. S. Berg decodes its teachings on evil, redemption, human relationships, wealth and poverty, and other fundamental concerns from a practical, contemporary perspective. The Zohar and Kabbalah have traditionally been known as the world’s most esoteric sources of spiritual knowledge, but Rav Berg has dedicated his life to making this concentrated distillation of infinite wisdom available to people of all faiths so that we may use its principles to live each day in harmony with the divine.
Download or read book The Zohar written by Daniel Chanan Matt and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third volume of The Zohar: Pritzker Edition completes the Zohar's commentary on the book of Genesis. Here we find spiritual explorations of numerous biblical narratives, including Jacob's wrestling with the angel, Joseph's kidnapping by his brothers, his near seduction by Potiphar's wife, his interpretation of Pharaoh's dreams, and his reunion with his brothers and father. Throughout, the Zohar probes the biblical text and seeks deeper meaning--for example, the divine intention behind Joseph's disappearance, or the profound significance of human sexuality. Divine and human realities intertwine, affecting one another. Toward the end of Genesis, the Bible states: Jacob's days drew near to die--an idiomatic expression that the Zohar insists on reading hyperliterally. Each human being is challenged to live his days virtuously. If he does, those days themselves are woven into a garment of splendor; at death, they "draw near," enveloping him, escorting him to the beyond. Sefer ha-Zohar (The Book of Radiance) has amazed and overwhelmed readers ever since it emerged mysteriously in medieval Spain toward the end of the thirteenth century. Written in a unique Aramaic, this masterpiece of Kabbalah exceeds the dimensions of a normal book; it is virtually a body of literature, comprising over twenty discrete sections. The bulk of the Zohar consists of a running commentary on the Torah, from Genesis through Deuteronomy.

Daniel C. Matt brings together in one place the most important teachings from the Zohar, the cornerstone of Kabbalah--described as a mixture of theology, mystical psychology, anthropology, myth, and poetry--alongside facing-page stories, notes, and historical background that illuminate and explain the text.

Guides readers step-by-step through the texts that make up the Zohar--midrash, mystical fantasy, commentary, and Hebrew scripture--and explains the inner meanings of this sacred text, recognized by kabbalists as the most important work of mystical teaching, in a way that is both spiritually enlightening and intellectually fascinating.

Download or read book Zohar The Book of Radiance Revealed written by Dr. Robert H. Schram and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-02-06 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are numerous books written about Jewish mysticism, kabbalah, and the Zohar (Book of Radiance). The Zohar is written in code through the use of symbolism, euphemisms, figures of speech, ancient phraseology, and the Hebrew Bible or Tenakh. Tenakh is an acronym formed from the initial Hebrew letters of Masoretic Text’s three traditional subdivisions (Torah - the Five Books of Moses, Nevi’im - Prophets, and Ketuvim - writings). Thanks to the incredible scholarship of Professor Daniel Matt from Berkeley California the codes of the Zohar have become more comprehensible to the inquisitive reader. It was because of Professor Matt’s translation, explanations, and notes on the Zohar in his first seven volumes that I was moved to write this book. ”The Zohar is firmly rooted in tradition but thrives on discovery.”

Download or read book Secrets of the Bible written by Michael Berg and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the Bible is a lifelong pursuit and there are many teachings within its veiled text. Bringing forward a fresh and relevant message about our purpose, and how to make life better, kabbalistic scholar, Michael Berg, imparts wisdom from decades of research and sources unique to his lineage. Gems of insight from the Zohar, Rav Berg, Rav Ashlag, Rav Isaac Luria (the Ari) as well as other known kabbalists are complemented by lessons from the ages. Kabbalists believe that the Bible is not just a book of stories or an historical archive of events: It is a guide to understanding the nature of this world, of life, and of the planet. Although these events physically took place thousands of years ago, there are transcendent fundamentals hidden within each tale. Michael drills through complex concepts to reveal essential truths. He utilizes biblical texts to expand our perception to see God in everything and everyone. Although Michael shares ideas that can awaken a desire for transformation, the gift he offers is another view of the Bible and its secrets.

Download or read book Zohar written by Nurho De Manhar and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2010-10-23 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kabbalah, often defined as a Jewish mystical tradition, actually encompasses "the spiritual heritage of all mankind," according to Rav P.S. Berg in The Essential Zohar. Berg, the dean of the Kabbalah Centre (whose members include celebrities such as Madonna and Mick Jagger), has concentrated a core of teachings from the central kabbalistic text, the Zohar, in a single volume that makes kabbalistic wisdom accessible to readers of all religious traditions. The Zohar, which dates back to the second century B.C.E., offers tools for doing the work of kabbalah: "transforming chaos and fragmentation into unity and completion." The Zohar's biblical commentaries and rabbinical stories of apparently "surprise happenings, sudden insights, and full-blown epiphanies" are intended to help readers open themselves to similar revelations. And Berg explains that all of the Zohar's rarified spiritual stories have potential for practical application, to help readers "replace doubt with certainty and darkness with Light." --Michael Joseph Gross --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
Download or read book The Kabbalistic Bible written by Yehudah Berg and published by Kabbalah Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Deuteronomy is the final book of the Five Books of Moses, said to have been written by Moses himself. Moses waited 40 years for permission by the Creator to admonish the Israelites for their mistakes, interpreted by kabbalists as teaching the Israelites the Universal Law of Cause and Effect. With this teaching, Moses helped to spiritually prepare their souls for entering the land of Israel. According to Kabbalistic tradition, the day an elevated soul like Moses leaves this world, he reveals secrets that he was previously unable to reveal. The Book of Deuteronomy is this revelation. Deuteronomy is edited and features contemporary insights by noted Kabbalah scholar and teacher Yehuda Berg. The text is complimented by excerpts from the Zohar and from the writings of three of history's greatest Kabbalists, Rav Yehuda Ashlag, Rav Yehuda Brandwein, and Rav P.S. Berg.
