Kabbalah and Exodus

by Z'Ev Ben Shimon Halevi

Overview

This book sets out to show that the story of Exodus is also an allegory of the human situation. Kabbalah, the esoteric tradition of Judaism, reveals how Egypt represents the slavery of the body and the Land Flowing with Milk and Honey symbolises the Realm of the Spirit. The inner meaning of the Exodus drama is that the escape from bondage and the Israelites' crossing of the Desert is about the soul's journey from being bound by habit and instinct into becoming an integrated individual, even as the slave-minded Israelites became an independent unified people. Drawing upon scripture, Jewish folklore and Kabbalah, the author lays out the various stages of development to be taken. This revised edition will be of interest to scholars of the Bible and psychologists as well as those on the spiritual path.
