General and special studies on Christian mysticism are numerous enough; but it is somewhat remarkable that, in their introductory pages, authors, who have much to say of Plotinus and Neoplatonism, have nothing or very little on the still more cognate subject of Jewish mysticism. This is not, however, so very surprising, for, truth to tell, there is a singular dearth of anything like an adequate introduction to the study of Jewish mysticism itself. The impression left with the general reader is that there is little of a mystical nature in the legitimate tradition of Jewish religion, and that the Kabbalah is simply a morbid and late growth, fed entirely by elements foreign to the genius of Israel. How ill-founded is the former view, and how extreme the latter, may be seen in the following pages. In an able summary, that may well serve as an introduction to the general study of Jewish mysticism, Dr. Abelson makes accessible to the general reader, in simple terms, the results of his careful inquiry, based on the researches of the best Jewish scholars, and reinforced by his own wide acquaintance with Talmudic and Rabbinical literature. Contents: Introduction Chapter I. Some Early Elements: Essenism Chapter II. The Merkabah (Chariot) Mysticism Chapter III. Philo: Metatron: Wisdom Chapter IV. Kingdom of Heaven: Fellowship: Shechinah Chapter V. The Book 'Yetsirah' Chapter VI. Some General Features of the 'Zohar' Mysticism Chapter VII. The Ten Sefirot Chapter VIII. The Soul Concluding Note
