Psalms and the Use of the Critical Imagination
Author: Katherine E. Southwood
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567696332
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
The contributors provide fresh insight into the context surrounding the composition and reception of the Psalms, the relationships between the Psalms, and of early audiences who engaged with the material. Close attention is also paid to specific interpretative problems which emerge in the Psalms, both linguistic and theological. Consequently, there is the creation of a more sophisticated historical reconstruction of how the Psalms were used originally and in subsequent periods, opening up challenges and possibilities for scholars through emphasizing the need in critical Psalms scholarship for vitality and imagination.

Inner Meaning of the Hebrew Letters
Author: Robert M. Haralick
Publisher: Jason Aronson, Incorporated
ISBN: 1461628946
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
This book-length meditation on the Hebrew alphabet offers profound insights into many important ideas found in Jewish thought. From time immemorial, the Hebrew alphabet has been considered to be more than a collection of individual letters. Indeed, the essence of each letter of the Hebrew alphabet can be seen as a fundamental building block of the world. Jewish scholars throughout the ages have meditated on these letters, deriving spiritual inspiration in the process. In The Inner Meaning of the Hebrew Letters, Robert M. Haralick looks closely at each of the Hebrew characters, helping us to gain insight from this remarkable tradition. Drawing primarily upon traditional kabbalistic and chasidic thought, Haralick combines his own insights with those of great Jewish personalities such as Moshe Chayim Luzzatto and Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav, as well as drawing upon classical texts, including the Bahir, the Zohar, the Midrash, and the Talmud. One of Haralick's main sources of inspiration is the ancient Jewish art of gematria, where each letter has a numerical value as does each combination of letters. Through this traditional methodology, Haralick shows his readers the many, often dazzling, ways that the Hebrew alphabet has been examined.

Discovering the Torah
Author: Josef Bláha
Publisher: Josef Blaha
ISBN: 8027043247
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 73
Book Description
Judaism in Spain had a long and rich history. The Jews were part of Spain, even if they were often persecuted and in the year 1492 they were expelled. The Jewish population was very prolific in Poetry,1 Philosophy,2 in especially religious poetry3. It is important to say that the Jewish Mysticism in Europe has had one of its oldest centers in Gerona in northern Spain. Rabbi Moses ben Nahman4, Rabbi Azriel5, and many other Kabbalists were among the first in Europe who interpreted the Torah in the way of the Kabbalah. The Revolution in the Spanish Kabbalah came with Rabbi Moshe de Leon (1240–1305). In the time of his youth, he read The Guide of the Perplexed by Maimonides.6 Moshe de Leon was however more and more attracted by the mystical understanding of the Torah. He is often considered as the main author of the Zohar. Meanwhile after Gershom Scholem thought that he was probably the main author of the Zohar, modern Scholars of the Kabbalah concluded that the composition of the Zohar was much more complicated.7 The Zohar is in fact the first kabbalistic commentary on the Torah. The translation of this book into English by Daniel C. Matt was an outstanding enterprise. The Zohar became the third canonical text of Judaism, only after the Hebrew Scriptures and the Talmud. With the book – printing there came a revolution in the distribution of the Zohar. 1

Redemption in the Lurianic Kabbalah and its Branches
Author: Redemption in the Lurianic Kabbalah and its Branches
Publisher: Josef Blaha
ISBN: 8011002759
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
The book Redemption in the Lurianic Kabbalah and Its Branches deals with a little known aspect of Rabbi Luria’s mystic teaching, about Redemption. The author of the book is grateful to Prof. Ronit Meroz from Tel Aviv University for her book on this subject which was Prof. Meroz’s doctoral work at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem in 1988. The author of this book has taught this subject to US students at the University in Prague for several semesters. Rabbi Luria influenced in an immense way not only Judaism, but even some Christian thinkers, as for example the philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz and the modern theologian Jürgen Moltmann. Everybody will agree that our world needs improvement, and the teaching of Rabbi Luria offers a sort of hope for a better world.
