Kabbalah is part of the corpus of Oral Torah – like the Mishnah, the Talmud and Halacha – that was given to Moshe at Sinai and transmitted from generation to generation, but unlike the revealed Torah which was disseminated as widely as possible to the whole nation, the Kabbalah was arcane and esoteric – known to the very few scholars at the highest levels of knowledge and greatness, and transmitted from teacher to student in secrecy. In Part One of our retelling of its history we offer definitions of Kabbalah and explore the content and methods of distribution of this esoteric wisdom in antiquity.
This Jewish History podcast is Sponsored by Barry Dubin – in loving memory of Andy Stern (Gershon Yaakov ben Moshe) Z”L. May his soul have a spiritual ascendancy in Heaven.
