Jewish Mysticism
The Infinite Expression of Freedom
In this short Littman book Rachel Elior presents Jewish mysticism as a creative response to exile, constraint and suffering, granting spiritual freedom through language and imagination. She surveys major themes and periods in a reflective, accessible style. Good for general readers looking for an interpretive overview rather than a textbook. It is ideal for a reflective first reading.
