Jewish Mysticism & Kabbalah

The Holy Kabbalah

by A. E. Waite

Arthur Edward Waite's large study surveys Kabbalistic literature, doctrine and its reception by Christian and occult writers. Although superseded by modern scholarship, it was the most comprehensive English work of its time and shaped how the Golden Dawn milieu understood Jewish mysticism. It remains of interest for readers studying the history of occult interpretations of Kabbalah.
