CIKA 1091 49 GATES OF GOD'S VIRTUOUS POWER


The concept of the sefirot is derived from Ancient Jewish spiritual tradition handed down from Mentor to student. This transference (handing down) is called Mesorah, and the reception is called qabal – קב ל
(Kabal) its acceptance is called qabala – קבלה (Kabbalah). Thus, Kabbalah is the reception of ancient Jewish teachings from the mentors and guides who have taught about Zohar and deep spiritual paths toward unity with The Eternal G-d. According to these Jewish Spiritual teachings, the Sefirot are Divine Emanations of Power and spiritual qualities through which the Divine energy flows in cosmic unfoldment in this present world. In this book, we will first give an overview of each of the Lower Sefirot.

This course is the continuation of Basics of Biblical Hebrew I, which is required for all Doctoral students to complete their program.  IN this course we will look at Hebrew adjetives, pronouns and Construct chain.
