Enchanted Chains
Techniques and Rituals in Jewish Mysticism
Moshe Idel studies the ritual and technical dimensions of Jewish mysticism, from Hekhalot practices and divine names to Kabbalistic techniques for drawing down power and the chain of transmission. He shows how mystical, magical and theurgical aims intertwined. Published by Cherub Press, it is important for readers interested in practical and operative Kabbalah. It is rich in primary citations.
