I hear and read of so many cutting remarks about Kabbalah from gentiles. They assume that Kabbalah is some sort of dark cult similar to witchcraft or other pagan practice. This is so far from the truth!
I have been "studying" Kabbalah for over nine years. Traditional Kabbalah that is. Not this new age Kabbalah that has become popular with Hollywood stars, like Madonna and brandishing red threads on the wrist to ward off evil spirits...which is ridiculous!
Kabbalah has been around for thousands of years. Some say since the first man, Adam. Others say since Abraham, in which his teachings reached India (Brahmans). It's a way of looking at creation, God, spiritual aspects of life. It is digging deeper into The Word of God and discovering the mysteries of life and beyond.
The most popular way in which to do this is meditation and use gematria, which uses the Hebrew letters which equal numbers. For instance the letter "B" in English is close to the letter Bet in Hebrew and has the numerical value of 2. Using the numerical values of letters and words compares to other words and thus one can see some sort of relation in seeking answers. These methods of discovering answers to pining questions hardly resemble some hocus pocus type of cult. Many Jewish Sages have mastered Kabbalah and have revealed to their students hidden mysteries and they are based on the Torah.
I have to ask where Christians get their insights from on life's questions?
I know of a pastor who taught his congregation that on Noah's Ark, there were probably dinosaur eggs on the Ark. How does he know that? Yet, his congregation listened to him. He must have some thought on that. Maybe he took a peek in some mystery writing? Who knows.
Haven't a lot of us wondered about many questions that the Bible/Tanach doesn't seem to answer? Kabbalah Sages have searched and found many, many answers. Wouldn't you like to know?
A book that I highly recommend is: Personal Kabbalah, by Penny Cohen.
Find out what all the mystery is about.
