Jewish Mysticism & Kabbalah

Alchemy and Kabbalah

by Gershom Scholem · Klaus Ottmann (trans.)

In this extended essay, translated into English for Spring Publications, Scholem investigates the long-assumed bond between Kabbalah and alchemy. He sorts genuine Jewish alchemical material from Christian and occultist inventions, discussing figures such as 'Abraham the Jew' and the Aesch Mezareph. It is a short, sharp study valuable for anyone tracing the meeting points of Jewish mysticism and Hermetic alchemy.
