Unveiling the Mysteries of Kabbalah:

Kabbalah, a Hebrew word that means “receiving” or “tradition,” is believed to have originated in the late 12th and early 13th centuries in Provence, France, and later developed in the town of Gerona in Catalonia, Spain. It gained prominence through the works of influential Kabbalistic scholars, the most renowned being Rabbi Moses ben Shem Tov de Leon, who was attributed with the writing of the Zohar, the foundational text of Kabbalah. Kabbalah, however, is not just a medieval development; its roots reach back into earlier Jewish mystical traditions, including Merkavah mysticism (focused on divine chariot visions) and Jewish Neoplatonism. Kabbalists believe that this mystical knowledge was orally transmitted from one generation to another, only put into writing when it was necessary. <a href="https://katestrong.medium.com/unveiling-the-mysteries-of-kabbalah-55afcf20b3b1">Website</a>
