Sonship and Jewish Mysticism
This large study explores the theme of divine sonship in Jewish texts, from biblical and Hellenistic sources through Metatron, Kabbalistic theosophy, Abulafia and Hasidism. Idel shows that the notion of a 'son of God' had a long and complex life within Judaism. It is a rich resource for readers interested in Jewish and Christian mystical interactions.
