I'm so looking forward to following your journey through the Zohar. I've been interested in it for a while now but I don't think I'll get to it any time soon. Can't wait to listen to your discussions of each part!
Glad to have you along, sir. I love your content and will love to hear your thoughts on this text coming out of Spain 1280. It's gonna be a mind-blow
An experience led me to this information. Thank you.
A pleasure to share
This is really good! I follow a lot of orthodox rabbis and they talk about the Zohar and Kabbalah mysticism. It is rooted in the Jewish faith. Believe they call it the mystical Torah
I had no idea what the Zohar was until today. Thanks for dropping some knowledge on us here!
Excellent introduction. 5,000 pages just got added to my TBR.
Delightful presentation Noah. Thank you.
Very well done! I loved your video. Regardless when I will be able to tackle such a journey, I feel I should remedy my ignorance of this topic because the ideas within this work sounds so much more open and tolerant than most topics that approach the subject of God and religion. Thank you for your words! I very much find your approaches to literary works valuable and inspiring.
Loved this - thanks, Noah! 👍 There are also lots of number games (called gematria) where each letter of the Hebrew alphabet corresponds to a number, and then connections are forged between words with the same numeric value.
I plan to get that 12 volume set of the Zohar Pritzker edition. I also wanna get the 5 volume Soncino edition but that one wasn't really recommended but I still want it. I did read a few books on the Zohar, like Green's Guide. Good video.
Thank you! Happy to share
Brilliant Presentation 🙏💫 Exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you!
Exciting, thanks for the video! I’m always a bit lost when i try get into religious texts, this is appreciated
My pleasure to share. I will be exploring the Zohar through 2022
This was fascinating, thanks for taking us through it, and I look forward to more.
It is so interesting, I have many ideas already for sharing
Amazing job! Im an orthodox jew and big student of maimonides (all his works) really enjoyed great job!!
Not exaggerating, for me this was like attending a great lecture.
My observations:
1. I didn’t know about the high-level similarities with the Divine Comedy.
2. God as not “separate” anymore from our reality is in fact one of the pillars of the New Testament. One of the main differences between Christianity and orthodox Judaism.
3. I don’t know if orthodox Judaism sees God as male, but the concept of God as non-gendered, or both male and female, is something that has been embraced by the early christian tradition since the very first fathers of the church.
4. It was great to hear about the relationship Zohar / Kabbala.
So - thank you!! 🙏🏻 Look forward to hearing more.
It is so interesting to see how inner-circle Jewish Rabbis may have had a radically different 'spirituality' than what is commonly accepted. I'm sure you will enjoy this reading/exploration, Tom
Thank you for your educational vlog
My pleasure to share 💪
@@EveryoneWhoReadsitMustConverseso you mentioned they lived in Spain with Muslims but what you forgot to mention or might not know that Spain was called Andalusia at that time under Islamic rule. The Christians wanted to kill Jews for not accepting Jesus but they livedd in Muslim countries all those years until Christianity was broken down. And n
Thank you for a very informative lecture on Jewish mysticism !
I try 😝😝
such a good presentation of the book
Thank youuuuu
Fascinating! Thanks, Noah :)
That was very Insightful. Thank you.
Pleasure 🙏
Hello, Thank you!! I will be subscribing :) I found you on Amazon review lol.
I was looking at Pistis Sophia and reading the reviews, someone said it was good but Zohar is better. I had never heard of it, but did take an intro to Kaballah a few years ago and felt a deep connection to the work. Which of the books that you showed do you recommend starting with?
Thanks...nice video
You don't mess with the Zohar needs a gif of Adam Sandler doing a kick. This context was really helpful as I have been aware of Kaballahs in general but no idea or in depth understanding
It is a fascinating exploration. Intellectually and deeper, Philosophically and further, ultimately transcendental to our day to day being. I hope you enjoy the content, I am ready for a transformative experience 😎
Ive tried to read it but man it left my head spinning
Same, you really have to embrace it and go down the rabbit hole of revealed interpretation 🤯🤯
I have been asking since Tony Kosinec 2008. True, those who ask must converse.
Interesting: the pointytouch!
Thank you for the informative video. There is a similar approach to God in the Muslim world, called 'Sufism', which as far as I know, originated in the early 12th century. Were those two movements affected by each other on their start? There was a clear connection in the 17th century with Sabbatai Zvi and Niyazi Mısr-i collaborating and praying together.
Yes, mystical Islam... I have no doubt there is convergence that is murky or lost to history.
Jesus Christ is the only Way, Truth and Life. Repent of your sins and ask him to save your soul! 💟

Yes this is why I couldn’t get with the fellow Jewish teaching nor everyone thinking they know the truth but yet them was same rebellious children who seek more then God who praised idols and clay and etc anything outside the word of God (KJV) scares me idk why
How many volumes does this edition of the Zohar run, Noah?
12 volumes - 9 is the Zohar proper, 3 appendices and supplemental material. Mostly other Kabbalistic texts contemporary with the Zohar
Be strong. It. Gets. Serious.
Have you ever read Dialogues of Love by Leone Ebreo aka Judah Leon Abravanel?
I have not heard of that, please tell me more
@@EveryoneWhoReadsitMustConverse He's a Portuguese Jewish philosopher from the late 1400s. The dialogue is between a man named Philo and a woman named Sophia. They discuss the differences between love and desire. I read it over ten years ago in college. It's mentioned briefly in the first chapter of Don Quixote, I believe. It seems to be hard to find in English. I got it from an interlibrary loan in 2009. I have only read it once.
@@marcelhidalgo1076 I am interested 😊

The core of esotericism is the study of the earthly human personality spectrum, putting them into categories
⚪️
The most simple one consists in divide it into three : body(early Soma, with 123 dedicated hymns), soul(early Indra, 250), and spirit(early Agni, 200), called the three men, allowing at each character only two possible states(Yin or Yang=The Ashvins, 54) : good(white=whole stroke), or bad(black=broken stroke), which gives you the eight trigram combinations of the Korean flag's Bagua, the eight immortals, and the 8 pointed star of Ishtar, from where comes originaly the symbolic star in the moon and star icon of Islam, going from the individual with all three traits : body(Torah, legislative), soul(Qur’an, executive), and spirit(Euaggelion, judicial) defective(broken lines), seen as born dead between Moloch legs, and between them antinecromantically burn, to the idealised perfect individual with all three lines whole (LTT=Potter, pottery; AZZ=Mighty, strength; MNW=Wizard, magic) and singularised at the top of its chest … less contagious than the enslaving and Caste System generating original Old Ganges Wordless Pentateuch at which the Phoenicians succumbed by force, effectively under the hands of the mercenary Arabs on 700CE, Tunis, as punition for freely teach to their children that the whole soul is the highly emotional, and the perfect man, the one being as the real extraterrestrials of alpha Centauri, the MLK, wearing the robe the High Priest of Israel does now, is the oxytocinic connectomed, like is written in Quran 53 : the octagram, verses 19-20 and 27 : “those that give to the MLKs' three parts, essence of female(Oxytocin = the most powerful plasmid ring in Universe)”, thing repeated around 1050CE by the character of Ieshua too, quoting the Quran
🟡 🟣
Then comes to divide it into five, with two states about which you are going to be induced into error(Urim and Thummim) through the same Gog and Magog inversions, like in the star of Ashtaroth, the unconsistently changing Vedic Hindu pentagrams(Cantonese : body(earth), instincts(metal), emotions(water), subconscious(wood), rational(air); Greek : instincts(earth=the drinkable fear Soma), emotions(water=killer Indra), rational(air=stealthy Vayu), psy(fire=holy Agni), charges(aether=changing changer Varuna), or Hogwarts houses(4(Slytherin=Indra, Hufflepuff=Soma, Ravenclaw=Vayu, Gryffindor=Agni) + 1(the one brother Voldemort headmasters = Ghosts))); seven with two states (combining the mentioned before) like in the Jewish menorah and early Christian candelabrum(about which the character of Ieshua is made said that less effective than the pentagram : 7 multiply itself less than 5 in the masses, and released by 1350CE) and Harry Potter books’ 7 Defence Against the Dark Arts teachers, further developed into thirteen with two states like the Sephiroth of Hindu Kabbalah, 13 sons of Ishrael(the star) and 13 of ishmael(the broken ring), Ieshua disciples(counting the unknown loved one too), the Greek renamed Indian zodiac constellations(that are 13); or still, the hexagram, which is similar, only in numbers, to the defensive 64 combinations of two states in the north Chinese book of changes, dating on the same epoch
🔴 🟢 🔵
All of them false due in biology the states are three : low suboptimal, optimal, and high suboptimal for any trait expression, with the categories being never independent between them, instead interconnected due product of a more basic neurotransmitters, structuring and polarising cofactors subjacent molecular level, making of esotericism a very dangerous set of proto-eugenic engrams, with serious consequences in reproductive, inheritance, and military drafts rituals when not correctly explained, and still worse if forced to be publicly ignored after islamic, then catholic, etc, executive purposeful established punishments
⚫️
And here why these unrealistic and antibiologic mathematical combinatory memes must be kept secret to can propagate, any public exposition weaken its pathogenic properties upon the highly succeptible young autistic subjects it targets under Ursa Major orders to favor ghrelinic connectomes running at inotocin above the oxytocinic ones ... nude and deathly cloaked of invisibility

I've never studied much Kaballah or Zohar, since traditionally one must be at least forty years old and married. I'm over forty now, but still unmarried. Though we obviously have both male and female attributes of the Divine, in actual practice, Orthodox and old-school Conservative prayerbooks use exclusively male pronouns and words. During the Avinu Malkeynu prayer on the High Holidays, I follow the example of my Hillel rabbi by alternating "Our Father, Our King" with "Our Mother, Our Queen." Recent Conservative and Reform prayerbooks solve the issue of androcentric language by using no pronouns for the Divine at all, which seems kind of nonintuitive to me.
I hope you don't mind if I correct your pronunciations of Shechinah and Maimonides! The CH in Shechinah is a guttural CH, like in loch, Chanukah, and my Hebrew first name Chana. Maimonides is My-MON-ih-dees (Mon rhyming with Don).
Thank you so much Ursula! One of the ways kabbalah and Zohar specifically gained mainstream/exoteric acceptance is through liturgy.
I'd love to hear more thoughts and have you along
Consult the works of Maimondes the Rambam. Must know Hewbrew and Aramaic
The universe and all matter is made up with the same subatomic particles. Everything is frequency, energy, light. The creator is in everything.
🙏🌞🙏
Finally!!!!! SOMEONE making sense of it all... GOD is energy not what a Jew says GOD is. Amazing how is that most people are just sheep following the butt of the one in front of it. That is why in a way Jews have deserved such a bad rap.
قراءت الكتاب
اوله فلسفة ونهايته تحمل الله وارادته اخطاء العالم
وتبرئ الناس من اخطاؤهم وتنسبها لارادة الخالق جل وعلا
Yessssssssss
It's dangerous if you are not prepared. Study Talmud first.
Don't mess with the Zohar
I pray you come to know who Jesus Christ is ànd turn away from the lies you've read about the nature of God.
This video is not about my thoughts or beliefs the Zohar is a thing.
Woah the female thing isnt in my pentateuch.
Ikr...this is going to be amazing 😝
Ruach (spirit) is a feminine word and according to Margaret Barker El Shaddai usually translated God Almighty is actually God with Breasts. That said El Shaddai is not El Elyon because in one of Jacob's blessings in Genesis 48 he identifies the elohim as an angel. Paul identifies christ as the power and Wisdom of god making the Chokmah of proverbs his feminine aspect. Think of it sort of like particle wave duality there's the spirit being the particle having a specific location a singular concrete pressence as the masculine aspect and the spirit of the spirit creature that can indwell in things as the wave aspect that enables a plurality of pressence as the feminine. God has a location his throne the heaven of heavens/0 dimension but nothing external is beyond the reach of his spirit.
The zohar is proof that sabbati tzvi and jacob frank were mashiach
Also the zohar is basically plagiarized Hinduism and aseevagam
Declarative... I'm looking forward to seeing if this has truth to it 😝
@@EveryoneWhoReadsitMustConverse with that being said dontlet that take from its authenticity if you are already invested in it thr zohar is very powerful may God bless you and your family in your search for truth as it is bigger than religion and expressed in different lenses around the world you can find this everywhere I'd love to discuss zohar with u :)
@@EveryoneWhoReadsitMustConverse oh and thanks for making the video !
@@EveryoneWhoReadsitMustConverse but yeah many of the Muslims and himdus of near by actually lived peacefully amongst the jews. And they all exchanger info very super interesting stuff even catholics have this embedded in their ideology it amazing stuff
@@roflswamp6 I am so interested in all this and invested in the Zohar enough to read it! I have read much of many spiritual modalities and love it all.

to me how is that sooooo many people look to be sheep of someone else and that is why Jews have such a bad rap since their history (mostly made up). Just put it in contest time wise: Abraham born in 1800's "BEFORE" Christ POLYTHEIST at that time, Hebrews called as such between 1300 to 1500 BEFORE Christ (AFTER Akanthen, probably misspelled), bible started to be put together as we know it NOW? old testament: first century after dead, new testament around 400, 500 AFTER dead.
CONCLUSION: Anything jewish related as we know it now "DID NOT EXIST" BEFORE 4 THOUSAND YEARS AGO since Abrahan had not been born yet, so... who was GOD then? or say 10k years ago? Anything Hebrew/Jew did "NOT" exist yet, predecessors of course were around they didn't even know they were to be called Hebrew/Jews centuries or millenians later.
That is why Jews have such a bad rap, because they think they are the only ones capable to say and define god to the masses.... yet the masses allow to be directed by them AMAZING!! Man kind tries do define GOD: yet that does not mean that, WHATEVER THE DEFINITION, is what GOD is, so any definition of GOD, could be as good or bad as any other, GOD is ENERGY everything in the universe is made out of ENERGY (after all Akanahten was right!!!! LOL!!!!)
FORGOT to mention... not that conclusive just yet but there is a strong ideological current beleaving that THE SO CALLED JEWS: were born out of EGYPT from the Hycksos (Abraham was a main of them) influenced by Egyptian culture, so much that Akanahten'f father (Amenhotech the III) was an Egyptian yet his mother was a lesser wife (concubine) decendant from Hycksos, most likely one of the priest of Akanahten out of the TWO again TWO exodous (one belicous as in war the other pacific, the one stated in old testament) was the designer of the so called birth of the Hebrews/Jews. so ... jews are an upshoot of Akanahten's views/religion. In fact, the old testament is 40% taken/stolen from Egyptian culture, 30% from Sumerian, 20% Cannanean and 10% just made up by compilers. So the so called "SACRED" BOOKS are just made up.
God bless ❤ Israel 🇮🇱 forever
That was painful.
