Course Info

The Mystery of God and His Shekhinah II builds on the foundations laid in the first part of the study and delves into the concept of divine Shekhina and its relationship to God. The ancient concept of Divine Shekhina is deep, multifaceted, and a foundation for understanding how God relates to his creation. Eli Dorfman explores the spiritual journey of Abraham and the idea of spiritual growth in the Jewish framework and New Testament tradition. He continues to explore key Jewish mystical ideas and relates them to the teachings found in the apostolic writings of the New Testament as he sees tangible connections. Furthermore, the lecturer, explains the idea of Tikkun Olam, the repair of the world, and relates its relationship to Shekhinah and humans as expressed in Jewish Mysticism. Be prepared to imagine the big picture, to ask questions you may not have ever considered borfore, and be enriched through the introspective mystical thought.

    Thank you for the overview of Zohar. One thing caught my eye, with regard to the diagram of the sephirot. I noticed that the lines, or emanations, that are connecting the sephirot are sometimes in the format that I see in the Pritzker edition; and other times more like the OTO representation (with three lines connecting to Malkhut). What is the difference of interpretation between the two?

    The time span of each segment is to be shorten otherwise it become boring topic.we can refresh our thoughts in between the time gap. The subject is very tough to understand .
