Keter
The Crown of God in Early Jewish Mysticism
Arthur Green traces the image of the divine crown from rabbinic legends and Hekhalot literature into early Kabbalah, where Keter becomes the highest sefirah. Along the way he explores the crowning of God by Israel's prayers and the feminine dimensions of the symbol. This Princeton monograph suits readers interested in continuity between ancient Jewish mysticism and medieval Kabbalah.
