A popular method for recontextualizing the incarnation as a Jewish concept has been to cite ancient Jewish precedents for the idea. This historical-textual approach, as popularized by Daniel Boyarin and others, has significant benefits. However, it also ignores underlying theological and philosophical issues that make the idea of incarnation nonsensical or redundant in the eyes of religious Jewish people. In order to address the objections of religious Jewish people, the Messianic Jewish movement may need to increase its proficiency in theological and philosophical discourse.

A popular method for recontextualizing the incarnation as a Jewish concept has been to cite ancient Jewish precedents for the idea. This historical-textual approach, as popularized by Daniel Boyarin and others, has significant benefits. However, it also ignores underlying theological and philosophical issues that make the idea of incarnation nonsensical or redundant in the eyes of religious Jewish people. In order to address the objections of religious Jewish people, the Messianic Jewish movement may need to increase its proficiency in theological and philosophical discourse. This paper outlines a second approach to explaining the deity of Messiah, called the Theological-Philosophical approach.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":67911698,"asset_id":49592646,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":18525951,"first_name":"Brian","last_name":"Crawford","domain_name":"biola","page_name":"BrianCrawford","display_name":"Brian J .

The origins of philosophical as well as theological thought can be said to lay in the human subject's effort to know, with absolute clarity, the nature and identity of that which is perceived. Knowledge, thus defined, provides thinking subjects the necessary grounds to engage reality with certainty and self-assuredness. Rational categorizations demarcating the boundaries between one thing and the other create the semblance of an ordered world in which the laws of logic dictate the true and the possible. As such, the primary mode in which thinking manifested itself was the authoritative answer. To end the interrogative thought journey with the absolute, totalized statement of fact was seen as the apex of knowledge and wisdom. The positive declaration that enclosed the circle of thought served as the culmination of the thought process. As a result of this logocentric nature of thinking, the answers to queries and philosophical explorations were elevated to a primary status while the questioning act itself was relegated to a secondary, if not negative category. Viewed as such, the question serves a utilitarian purpose in that it creates the opening necessary for knowledge to unfold. The interval between the unexamined presence of being and the enlightened knowledge of being is the question. Inessential on its own, the question creates the space in which thinking, and ultimately knowledge can take root. The question then becomes an impediment which must be traversed in order for the answer to be disclosed. From Socratic questioning through Hegelian dialectics, the difficulties set forth by the question serve a secondary role in a process through which the question is eventually absorbed within the clarified answer. Within our historical moment, however, the binary oppositions that have dictated the hierarchy of values have been overturned. The quest for knowledge can longer be said to close with the absolute answer. With Nietzsche's "great problems and question marks"1 of reality, the passage has been opened through which the essentialist nature of the ontotheological project can be called into question. The turn from the totalized project of Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit and the self-conscious Cartesian subject resulted in a paradigmatic shift in which the ideas and concepts once relegated to the margins-of-thought have reasserted themselves into the body-of-thought. Martin Heidegger, in his attempt to move beyond the beginning of western metaphysics claims that ontology, or being, has been taken for granted.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/41285645" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="cc5e30f4c6510617c218a5dd4f4a41ce" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":61504800,"asset_id":41285645,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61504800/download_file?st=MTc0MDYyMzcyNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="5443924" href="https://independent.academia.edu/JoeyRosenfeld">Joey Rosenfeld</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="5443924" type="text/json">{"id":5443924,"first_name":"Joey","last_name":"Rosenfeld","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"JoeyRosenfeld","display_name":"Joey Rosenfeld","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/JoeyRosenfeld?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/5443924/11910937/34575333/s65_joey.rosenfeld.jpeg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_41285645 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="41285645"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 41285645, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_41285645", });

For example, physicalism and functionalism provide a useful understanding of consciousness, mind, brain and external world when viewed from a third-person perspective, while neutral monism provides a useful way of understanding first- versus third-person views of external phenomena. On the other hand, dual-aspect monism provides a useful way of understanding first- versus third-person views of mind, including Eastern versus Western views of mind.  Dual-aspect monism also provides a useful understanding of the “unconscious ground of being” that gives rise to, supports and embeds all these observable phenomena.

Book of Creation), written in 1670 by Rabbi Avraham Binyamin Nathan ben Elisha Chaim Halevi Askhenazy, also known as Nathan Ghazzati or Rabbi Nathan of Gaza. It has been copied into several manuscripts, which ended up scattered around the world, until they were ultimately collected by professor Chaim Wirszubski Z.L. of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in the 1930s and 1940s. Wirszubski set out on a project of conducting a scientific edition of the treatise, and even published a small part of it.  However, misfortune has prevented him from finishing his great work, and he was called upon to teach in the Great Yeshiva in heavens. Now, the reader is presented with a full edition, accompanied by a comprehensive and methodical research. The research is separated from the original text, to allow the reader to focus on the text itself, if they so wish. Those who would seek to also delve into the analysis, can easily do so.<br />It is not everyday that a person is awarded the great privilege of returning a lost book to the collective Jewish library. Even more so when it is a book written by one of the greatest rabbis in recent generations, least of all a halakhic figure of the magnitude of Rabbi Nathan. We are faced with an unparalleled text in Rabbinic messianic and Hebrew literature. It is the central text of the Sabbatean movement after Sabbatai Zevi’s conversion to Islam. Sefer Habri’a was written by the progenitor of the movement, Rabbi Nathan of Gaza. Rabbi Nathan was famously considered a prophet by the spiritual leaders of the Jewish world in his time, and was one of those who declared Sabbatai Zevi to be a messiah. He was the one who explained the profound meaning of Zevi’s conversion, and the one who tried to prevent the masses from converting along with him.<br />If we wish to be certain that we can indeed declare “thou art our brother” to Nathan, we must look at this renewed text from every possible perspective. The text’s uniqueness, it’s complexity, length and meaning introduce many challenges, both on the technical-philological level and on that of semantic analysis. We should also pay heed to how socially problematic the Sabbatean movement is, following the heated debates that arose several generations after Zevi’s conversion. On that subject, we can view Sefer Habri’a as a treatise which ascribes profound meaning to Zevi’s ‘foreign acts’, through the Ha’ari’s hyper-nomic system. That is, the Lurianic Kabbalah, which unequivocally accepts the Jewish Halakha as sacred, is the treatise’s main method of discourse. It seems that the survival and continuity of Jewish tradition after the crisis was Rabbi Nathan’s main motivation in writing this immense work. That is, the desire to give a profound kabbalic meaning to the commandments of halakha, in the face of a shifting historical reality is at the heart of the text.<br />Sabbateanism is a grave subject in Jewish history. Therefore, whenever a new Sabbatean document is published, we must ask ourselves how its publication will affect the existing knowledge we have. When people read new material that contradicts what they perceive to be true, they often develop a ‘resistance front’, assuming that every new claim must be proved out of the existing body of knowledge, as if the unknown can be explored from the confines of the known. The problem here is evident - new information cannot be added in this way, and true learning cannot be achieved. All that can happen is that we pour old knowledge into a slightly different mould, at best. That said, there are times when a newly published document is so important that it demands of us to re-examine all of our previous held knowledge. More often than not, those who are tasked with preserving knowledge are not enthusiastic by the appearance of a new research which undermines the well known system to which they adhere. Therefore, if we wish the new knowledge to be properly accepted by people in that position, upon publishing such a document we must present in detail what we retain, and what we reconsider. It is possible that Sefer Habri’a would lead us into rethinking the Sabbatean movement in its entirety. It is, after all, a fundamental text written by the movement’s progenitor, immediately after the conversion. We will soon see that Sefer Habri’a would lead any observant reader to a clear understanding that it is a Kabbalah book that follows directly the writings of the Ha’ari. It is a direct continuation, and some would even say the highlight, of the Lurianic corpus. In this manner we can also see that Torat Israel, the Jewish halakha and the well-being of the nation at a time of crisis were undoubtedly on the mind of the author, Rabbi Nathan of Gaza, and that he was a loyal grand sage of Israel.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/39742481" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="e7fc9abaa9bc75a99455cc75d2cdc299" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":59922099,"asset_id":39742481,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/59922099/download_file?st=MTc0MDYyMzcyNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="49265284" href="https://independent.academia.edu/LeorHolzer">Leor Holzer</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="49265284" type="text/json">{"id":49265284,"first_name":"Leor","last_name":"Holzer","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"LeorHolzer","display_name":"Leor Holzer","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/LeorHolzer?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/49265284/12958612/22410132/s65_leor.holzer.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_39742481 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="39742481"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 39742481, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_39742481", });

In this manner we can also see that Torat Israel, the Jewish halakha and the well-being of the nation at a time of crisis were undoubtedly on the mind of the author, Rabbi Nathan of Gaza, and that he was a loyal grand sage of Israel. \n","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":59922099,"asset_id":39742481,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":49265284,"first_name":"Leor","last_name":"Holzer","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"LeorHolzer","display_name":"Leor Holzer","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/LeorHolzer?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/49265284/12958612/22410132/s65_leor.holzer.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":7664,"name":"Religious Conversion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Religious_Conversion?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":8724,"name":"17th-Century Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/17th-Century_Studies?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":12844,"name":"Natural Theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Natural_Theology?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":26418,"name":"Kabbalah","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Kabbalah?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":26467,"name":"Hasidism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hasidism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":27015,"name":"Gershom Scholem","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Gershom_Scholem?f_ri=26418"},{"id":43809,"name":"Jerusalem","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Jerusalem?f_ri=26418"},{"id":87758,"name":"Orthodox Judaism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Orthodox_Judaism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":92390,"name":"Lurianic Kabbalah","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Lurianic_Kabbalah?f_ri=26418"},{"id":164533,"name":"THESSALONIKI","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/THESSALONIKI?f_ri=26418"},{"id":231281,"name":"Sabbatean movement","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sabbatean_movement?f_ri=26418"},{"id":231282,"name":"Dönmeh","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Donmeh?f_ri=26418"},{"id":237907,"name":"Frankism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Frankism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":238421,"name":"Sabbateanism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sabbateanism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":324975,"name":"Gaza Strip","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Gaza_Strip?f_ri=26418"},{"id":646776,"name":"Nathan of Gaza","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nathan_of_Gaza?f_ri=26418"},{"id":1144769,"name":"Shabbatai Zevi","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Shabbatai_Zevi?f_ri=26418"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_5824282" data-work_id="5824282" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/5824282/_Black_Fire_Over_White_Fire_Kabbalah_and_Modernity"> ‘Black Fire Over White Fire:’ Kabbalah and Modernity</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Hélène Domon "Yx" and "or:" in 1868, Stéphane Mallarmé spent several months writing a poem that contained only those two rhymes, with Nothingness as its central theme and "Sonnet Allegorical Of Itself" as a first title 1 .

He sent the poem to his friend Henri Cazalis with this curious letter: I"m extracting this sonnet, which I thought about once, from a projected study on the word: it is inverted, by which I mean that its meaning, if there is one (but I"d draw consolation for its lack of meaning from the dose of poetry it contains, at least in my view) is evoked by an internal mirage of the words themselves. If you murmur it to yourself a couple of times, you get a fairly cabbalistic sensation. That amounts to a confession that it is not very "plastic," as you requested, but at least it"s as "black and white" as possible... 2 This letter, among others, reveals that Mallarmé was at least somewhat familiar with the literature of Jewish Kabbalah, from which he borrowed several elements: a belief in the inner power of the murmured word; a "project on speech;" a "black and white" theme used to describe writing; a mystical approach to poetry which was to provide a physical, "kabbalistic sensation;" and above all, a reflection on the possibility of pure, total, "self-allegorical" writing, and a lifelong quest for "the Book." Mallarmé's contact with Jewish Kabbalah was probably minimal; it certainly was not of religious or theological order, but rather of literary order. 3 This element, however, poses the question of a possible post-theological relation of modern écriture, whose origin French critics often associate with Mallarmé, with Jewish Kabbalah. How did certain forms and concepts of Jewish Kabbalah influence, whether directly or indirectly, not just Mallarmé"s writings, but an essential aspect of modern French thought? To what extent has the Kabbalistic formulation of the fundamental concepts of speech and writing influenced the modern definition of parole and écriture by offering a counterpart to the more traditional logocentric formulation of Platonism and Christianity?</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/5824282" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="b245a86ccda7bcaf9105f8730db52302" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":32832897,"asset_id":5824282,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/32832897/download_file?st=MTc0MDYyMzcyNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="7913037" href="https://fullerton.academia.edu/H%C3%A9l%C3%A8neDomon">Hélène Domon</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="7913037" type="text/json">{"id":7913037,"first_name":"Hélène","last_name":"Domon","domain_name":"fullerton","page_name":"HélèneDomon","display_name":"Hélène Domon","profile_url":"https://fullerton.academia.edu/H%C3%A9l%C3%A8neDomon?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/7913037/2787266/3249399/s65_h_l_ne.domon.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_5824282 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="5824282"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 5824282, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_5824282", });

Kalonymous Kalman Shapira, the Rebbe of Piazecna (1889-1943). Academic interest in exploring mystical phenomena solely within their historical, social and political contexts has increased in recent years. This article challenges the exclusive quest for historicization in the study of Jewish mysticism, using R. Shapira's remarkable mystical-imagery techniques as a case study. Through employing the concepts of “empowerment” and “intensification” as a lens for the study of mysticism in world religions, this article argues that R. Shapira used imagery techniques as a method for empowerment in ritual, both nomian and anomian, in order to transform normative religious acts into mystical experiences. These imagery exercises are not simply one technique among many. Nor do they just function as an alternative to the experiences made possible by secularism in the early twentieth century, as have been claimed in studies based on historical readings of his works. Historical research that negates a phenomenological perspective impedes the scholar from observing a variety of important insights. R. Shapira used imagery techniques as a powerful tool for intensifying all religious practices, transforming ordinary rituals into encounters with the Divine.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/20065547" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="5299784df12573ef589ddfa7250b6cae" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":41001348,"asset_id":20065547,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41001348/download_file?st=MTc0MDYyMzcyNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="1077092" href="https://herzog.academia.edu/DanielReiser">Daniel Reiser</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="1077092" type="text/json">{"id":1077092,"first_name":"Daniel","last_name":"Reiser","domain_name":"herzog","page_name":"DanielReiser","display_name":"Daniel Reiser","profile_url":"https://herzog.academia.edu/DanielReiser?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/1077092/2750588/87892006/s65_daniel.reiser.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_20065547 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="20065547"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 20065547, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_20065547", });

Kalonymous Kalman Shapira, the Rebbe of Piazecna (1889-1943). Academic interest in exploring mystical phenomena solely within their historical, social and political contexts has increased in recent years. This article challenges the exclusive quest for historicization in the study of Jewish mysticism, using R. Shapira's remarkable mystical-imagery techniques as a case study. Through employing the concepts of “empowerment” and “intensification” as a lens for the study of mysticism in world religions, this article argues that R. Shapira used imagery techniques as a method for empowerment in ritual, both nomian and anomian, in order to transform normative religious acts into mystical experiences. These imagery exercises are not simply one technique among many. Nor do they just function as an alternative to the experiences made possible by secularism in the early twentieth century, as have been claimed in studies based on historical readings of his works. Historical research that negates a phenomenological perspective impedes the scholar from observing a variety of important insights. R. Shapira used imagery techniques as a powerful tool for intensifying all religious practices, transforming ordinary rituals into encounters with the Divine.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":41001348,"asset_id":20065547,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":1077092,"first_name":"Daniel","last_name":"Reiser","domain_name":"herzog","page_name":"DanielReiser","display_name":"Daniel Reiser","profile_url":"https://herzog.academia.edu/DanielReiser?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/1077092/2750588/87892006/s65_daniel.reiser.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":106,"name":"Religion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Religion?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":2083,"name":"New Historicism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/New_Historicism?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":3815,"name":"Spirituality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spirituality?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":4264,"name":"Jewish Mysticism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Jewish_Mysticism?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":5178,"name":"Phenomenology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Phenomenology?f_ri=26418"},{"id":5180,"name":"Historicism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Historicism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":7322,"name":"Mysticism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Mysticism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":12344,"name":"Comparative Mysticism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Comparative_Mysticism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":12349,"name":"Spirituality \u0026 Mysticism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spirituality_and_Mysticism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":15838,"name":"Imagination","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Imagination?f_ri=26418"},{"id":23797,"name":"Phenomenology (Research Methodology)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Phenomenology_Research_Methodology_?f_ri=26418"},{"id":23806,"name":"Hassidism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hassidism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":26418,"name":"Kabbalah","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Kabbalah?f_ri=26418"},{"id":26467,"name":"Hasidism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hasidism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":30906,"name":"Phenomenology of Religion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Phenomenology_of_Religion?f_ri=26418"},{"id":1061643,"name":"New Historicism Critical Analysis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/New_Historicism_Critical_Analysis?f_ri=26418"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_69335673" data-work_id="69335673" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/69335673/A_Kabbalistic_Lithograph_in_Australia_Rabbi_A_B_Daviss_Lectures_on_the_Origin_of_the_Rites_and_Worship_of_the_Hebrews">A Kabbalistic Lithograph in Australia: Rabbi A.

The article shows how this myth became the foundation for various practices against the evil eye among Jews in the modern period and contextualizes this myth within theories about the evil eye.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":52181405,"asset_id":31896538,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":2182199,"first_name":"Gadi","last_name":"Sagiv","domain_name":"openu","page_name":"GadiSagiv","display_name":"Gadi Sagiv","profile_url":"https://openu.academia.edu/GadiSagiv?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/2182199/9314661/10382047/s65_gadi.sagiv.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":788,"name":"Mythology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Mythology?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":983,"name":"Jewish Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Jewish_Studies?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":4058,"name":"Ritual","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Ritual?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":4264,"name":"Jewish Mysticism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Jewish_Mysticism?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":5408,"name":"Magic","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Magic?f_ri=26418"},{"id":10776,"name":"Colour Theory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Colour_Theory?f_ri=26418"},{"id":26418,"name":"Kabbalah","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Kabbalah?f_ri=26418"},{"id":26445,"name":"Judaism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Judaism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":34226,"name":"Natural Dyes and their applications","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Natural_Dyes_and_their_applications?f_ri=26418"},{"id":68127,"name":"Zohar","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Zohar?f_ri=26418"},{"id":76714,"name":"Color","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Color?f_ri=26418"},{"id":76721,"name":"Color symbolism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Color_symbolism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":115368,"name":"Colour","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Colour?f_ri=26418"},{"id":264222,"name":"Tekhelet","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Tekhelet?f_ri=26418"},{"id":756078,"name":"Evil Eye","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evil_Eye?f_ri=26418"},{"id":989106,"name":"The Evil Eye","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/The_Evil_Eye?f_ri=26418"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_4168156" data-work_id="4168156" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/4168156/Pan_Jezus_i_Pan_Jakub_Frank">Pan Jezus i Pan Jakub Frank</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">(z dyGresją na TemaT naTana z Gazy) 1 jezus naTana z Gazy We wrześniu 1665 roku, w apogeum mesjańskiego wstrząsu związanego z osobą Sabataja Cwi, prorok sabataizmu, Natan z Gazy napisał list do ważnego przedstawiciela wspólnoty żydowskiej... <a class="more_link u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" data-container=".work_4168156" data-show=".complete" data-hide=".summarized" data-more-link-behavior="true" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">(z dyGresją na TemaT naTana z Gazy) 1 jezus naTana z Gazy We wrześniu 1665 roku, w apogeum mesjańskiego wstrząsu związanego z osobą Sabataja Cwi, prorok sabataizmu, Natan z Gazy napisał list do ważnego przedstawiciela wspólnoty żydowskiej w Kairze, çelebiego Rafaela Józefa. Zamożny i wpływowy Rafael Józef był entuzjastycznym zwolennikiem Sabataja i hojnym gestem wspierał jego sprawę. List Natana miał być manifestem gwałtownie rozprzestrzeniającego się ruchu mesjańskiego.

Teoretyczna część listu była najwcześniejszą próbą sformułowania tez, które wkrótce stały się podstawą teologii sabatajskiej i określiły ramy mającej się rozwinąć dyskusji na temat miejsca Sabataja Cwi w całej tradycji żydowskiego mesjanizmu. W swym obrazie natury mesjasza Natan z Gazy zawarł trzy zasadnicze wątki. Pierwszym było odrzucenie luriańskiej tradycji kawanot (intencji modlitewnych). Zdaniem Natana nadejście mesjasza zmieniło naturę rzeczywistości do tego stopnia, że propagowany przez Lurię sposób modlitwy stał się przestarzały, a być może wręcz szkodliwy. Drugi poruszony przez Natana wątek dotyczył tezy, że mesjasz powinien zostać rozpoznany i uznany na podstawie "czystej wiary", bez wsparcia znaków czy cudów, i że człowiek zasłuży na miejsce w przyszłym świecie nie dzięki wypełnianiu przykazań, ale przez samą wiarę w mesjasza. Trzeci trop -odrębny, choć powiązany z drugim -głosił, że mesjasz ma moc zbawiania tych, którzy w niego wierzą, niewierzących zaś może skazać na wieczne potępienie. Oto fragment listu: 1 Esej ten powstał w trakcie mojego pobytu w Herbert D. Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies na Uniwersytecie Pensylwanii. Jestem niezmiernie wdzięczny Centrum i jego dyrektorowi, Davidowi Rudermanowi, za gościnę i stworzenie idealnych warunków do pracy naukowej. Szkic artykułu dyskutowany był w trakcie nieoficjalnego seminarium odbywającego się w Centrum. Komentarze moich współpracowników w znacznym stopniu przyczyniły się do powstania tekstu. Specjalne podziękowania należą się moim studentom, Irit Shapirze i Matanii Fischheimerowi, za nasze cotygodniowe dyskusje o sabataizmie.

The intention and transmission of John Dee’s angel magic is linked to the philosophy outlined in his earlier works, most notably the Monas Hieroglyphica, and so this dissertation also provides a philosophical background to Dee’s angel magic. The aim of this dissertation is to establish Dee’s conversations with angels as a magic system that is a direct descendant of Solomonic and Ficinian magic with unique Kabbalistic elements. It is primarily by the Neoplatonic, Hermetic, Kabbalistic, and alchemical philosophy presented in the Monas Hieroglyphica that interest in Dee’s angel magic was transmitted through the Rosicrucian movement. Through Johann Valentin Andreae’s Chymische Hochzeit Christiani Rosencreutz anno 1459, the emphasis on a spiritual, inner alchemy became attached to Dee’s philosophy. Figures such as Elias Ashmole, Ebenezer Sibley, Francis Barret, and Frederick Hockley were crucial in the transmission of interest in Dee’s practical angel magic and Hermetic philosophy to the founders of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. The rituals of the Golden Dawn utilized Dee’s angel magic, in addition to creative Kabbalistic elements, to form a singular practice that has influenced Western esoterica of the modern age. This study utilizes a careful analysis of primary sources including the original manuscripts of the Sloane archives, the most recent scholarly editions of Dee’s works, authoritative editions of original documents linked to Rosicrucianism, and Israel Regardie’s texts on Golden Dawn practices.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/921740" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="83bda4a2d72af40753a4c37693dc7e30" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":35692349,"asset_id":921740,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/35692349/download_file?st=MTc0MDYyMzcyNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="173664" href="https://exeter.academia.edu/AnthonyHoltberg">Anthony Holtberg</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="173664" type="text/json">{"id":173664,"first_name":"Anthony","last_name":"Holtberg","domain_name":"exeter","page_name":"AnthonyHoltberg","display_name":"Anthony Holtberg","profile_url":"https://exeter.academia.edu/AnthonyHoltberg?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/173664/43421/160428300/s65_anthony.holtberg.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_921740 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="921740"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 921740, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_921740", });

A tireless author, journalist, and polemicist, he published constantly in both the Yiddish and Hebrew press, offering a bold new vision of contemporary spiritual life grounded in his reading of Hasidic sources. But Zeitlin sought to become an activist as well as a literary figure. He was especially concerned with the situation of the rootless Jewish youth. Throughout his career as a public figure, beginning shortly after World War I, he issued calls for a new organization of Jewish life. In a series of articles published in the 1920s he sought to form an elite Jewish spiritual fraternity to be called Yavneh, the most fully elaborated of his attempts at intentional community. The present study collects together Zeitlin’s Yiddish writings on the Yavneh fellowship, which are here re-printed and translated for the first time. Alongside these we present a newly discovered manuscript signed by Zeitlin, a single-sheet four-sided signed text in which he describes more succinctly and clearly the nature of the group and its intended function.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/20232045" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="e79e729ee685a2e4605640bddd6f66bf" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":44904005,"asset_id":20232045,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/44904005/download_file?st=MTc0MDYyMzcyNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="201433" href="https://stanford.academia.edu/ArielMayse">Ariel Evan Mayse</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="201433" type="text/json">{"id":201433,"first_name":"Ariel","last_name":"Evan Mayse","domain_name":"stanford","page_name":"ArielMayse","display_name":"Ariel Evan Mayse","profile_url":"https://stanford.academia.edu/ArielMayse?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/201433/1985054/8831716/s65_ariel.mayse.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_20232045 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="20232045"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 20232045, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_20232045", });

A tireless author, journalist, and polemicist, he published constantly in both the Yiddish and Hebrew press, offering a bold new vision of contemporary spiritual life grounded in his reading of Hasidic sources. But Zeitlin sought to become an activist as well as a literary figure. He was especially concerned with the situation of the rootless Jewish youth. Throughout his career as a public figure, beginning shortly after World War I, he issued calls for a new organization of Jewish life. In a series of articles published in the 1920s he sought to form an elite Jewish spiritual fraternity to be called Yavneh, the most fully elaborated of his attempts at intentional community. The present study collects together Zeitlin’s Yiddish writings on the Yavneh fellowship, which are here re-printed and translated for the first time. Alongside these we present a newly discovered manuscript signed by Zeitlin, a single-sheet four-sided signed text in which he describes more succinctly and clearly the nature of the group and its intended function.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":44904005,"asset_id":20232045,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":201433,"first_name":"Ariel","last_name":"Evan Mayse","domain_name":"stanford","page_name":"ArielMayse","display_name":"Ariel Evan Mayse","profile_url":"https://stanford.academia.edu/ArielMayse?f_ri=26418","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/201433/1985054/8831716/s65_ariel.mayse.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":382,"name":"Eastern European Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Eastern_European_Studies?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":669,"name":"Yiddish Literature","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Yiddish_Literature?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":983,"name":"Jewish Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Jewish_Studies?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":3783,"name":"Contemporary Spirituality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Contemporary_Spirituality?f_ri=26418","nofollow":true},{"id":3815,"name":"Spirituality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spirituality?f_ri=26418"},{"id":4049,"name":"Yiddish","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Yiddish?f_ri=26418"},{"id":4264,"name":"Jewish Mysticism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Jewish_Mysticism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":4669,"name":"Rare Books and Manuscripts","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Rare_Books_and_Manuscripts?f_ri=26418"},{"id":6663,"name":"Manuscript Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Manuscript_Studies?f_ri=26418"},{"id":12349,"name":"Spirituality \u0026 Mysticism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spirituality_and_Mysticism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":26418,"name":"Kabbalah","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Kabbalah?f_ri=26418"},{"id":26467,"name":"Hasidism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hasidism?f_ri=26418"},{"id":26891,"name":"Manuscripts (Medieval Studies)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Manuscripts_Medieval_Studies_?f_ri=26418"},{"id":28094,"name":"New Age spirituality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/New_Age_spirituality?f_ri=26418"},{"id":55854,"name":"History of Secret Societies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/History_of_Secret_Societies?f_ri=26418"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_22273825" data-work_id="22273825" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/22273825/God_and_his_Son_Christian_Affinities_in_the_Shaping_of_the_Sava_and_Yanuka_Figures_in_the_Zohar_Jewish_Quarterly_Review_107_1_2017_38_65">God and his Son: Christian Affinities in the Shaping of the Sava and Yanuka Figures in the Zohar, Jewish Quarterly Review 107.1 (2017), 38-65</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">The narrative figures of the Yanuka (the Wunderkind) and the Sava (the Wise Old Man) are among the most enigmatic characters in zoharic narratives.
