The Secret Doctrine in Israel a Study of the Zohar and Its Connections

The Secret Doctrine in Israel: A Study of the Zohar and its Connections is a book written by Arthur Edward Waite. The book is a comprehensive study of the Zohar, a mystical text of Jewish Kabbalah, and its connections to other religious and philosophical traditions. Waite explores the origins and development of the Zohar, its teachings on the nature of God, the soul, and the universe, and its influence on Jewish and Christian mysticism. He also examines the connections between the Zohar and other mystical traditions, such as the Hermetic and Rosicrucian traditions, and the influence of the Zohar on the development of Western esotericism. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Jewish mysticism, comparative religion, and esotericism.Contents: Early Students of Kabalism; Hidden Church of Israel; Majesty of God in Kabalism; Doctrine of Cosmology; Myth of the Earthly Paradise; Serpent, Son of the Morning, and Fall of the Angels; Fall of Man; Legend of the Deluge; Covenant with Abraham; Of Moses, the Master of the Law; Temples in Jerusalem; Coming of Messiah; Soul in Kabalism Doctrine Concerning Sheol; Concerning Resurrection; Mystery of Shekinah; Mystery of Sex; Occult Sciences; Developments of Later Kabalism; Alleged Christian Elements; Conclusion on Jewish Theosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
