Overview

Christianity rests on a profound spiritual foundation much of which is to be found in the oral or unwritten Judeo-Christian Tradition. This book introduces the reader to how access can be gained to the knowledge, understanding and wisdom of this Tradition through the methodology of the Jewish mystical Kabbalah. It begins by explaining what the Mysteries are and considering a short history of the Kabbalah. It then introduces the fundamental concepts of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. These include the sephiroth, the four worlds, the nature of soul and spirit, and the descent of spirit into matter. By this point the reader will have begun to discover deeper insights into scripture and, also, that some of the most enigmatic writings of the Church Fathers are easily understood from the Kabbalistic perspective. Some further examples of these revelations are found in the chapters that follow before the implications of this with regards to spiritual development are considered. Applying the methodology of the Kabbalah to Christian teachings demonstrates that a far greater unity between Jewish and Christian theology exists than is often thought to be the case..It also opens the door to discovering the deepest insights into biblical texts.
