PUBLISHER’S PREFACE

‘About the Book

"This is the only extensive translation of a portion of the Zohar, the longest
and cne of the most important texts of the Kabbalah.

‘The Zohar is @ Kabbalistic commentary on the Hebrew Bible. Long before
the ‘Bible Code," Jewish scholars were attempting to wring deep meaning
ut of every syllable of the text uf the Hebrew Bible, using numervlogy,
gematrla, and other techniques. Dozens of pages in this baok are devoted
to analyses of the hidcen meaning behind first few lettars of Genesis! This
might seem ullra-pedantic; however, the Zoltar makes the Biblicel text
come to life, brimming with mystical significance. Seemingly unimportant
details end tums of phrase, which you may have reed long ago ane
forgotien, lead to immense vistas of ¢ mysterious world inside the world.

This is not a critical edition; written by 2 pseudonymous Theosophist,
probably British, itis laved with cul-uf-plave Lerminelogy such as ‘Karma’
and 'Planes.' It nevertheless lets you wade in the rip currant of one of the
‘most rnagical of the world's sacred texts, ard leaves you gasping for air ane
wanting mere.”
