The Enlightened Will Shine

Symbolization and Theurgy in the Later Strata of the Zohar

by Pinchas Giller

Giller examines the Tikkunei Zohar and Ra'aya Meheimna, later layers of the Zoharic corpus with a distinctive voice and theology. He analyzes their symbolism, their theurgic understanding of commandments as acts affecting the divine, and their tension with rabbinic law. A specialized SUNY monograph for readers who want to go beyond the main Zohar narratives.
