A Guide to the Zohar
Originally written as the introduction to the Pritzker Zohar, Arthur Green's guide explains the Zohar's historical background, its literary forms, its theology of the sefirot and the companionship of Rabbi Shimon bar Yohai. Short, lucid and warm, this Stanford book is perhaps the best single-volume orientation for readers about to begin reading the Zohar itself.
