Mystic Trends in Judaism - Arnold Posy - Bog

How were Jews able to survive centuries of deprivation and persecution? One factor was the belief in the tenet that what is just is right. Another was the relationship of the Jews to God as expressed in mystical writings. By evaluating the incalculable impact made on Judaism by Kabbalah, Messianism, Hasidism, and Zaddikism, this absorbing volume gives us a better understanding of the yearning of the Jew not only for personal evaluation, but for universal redemption. Originally published in 1966 and reissued in 1994, this title is available on-demand only.
