Kabbalah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Kabbalah is a doctrine of esoteric knowledge concerning God, God's creation of the universe and the laws of nature, and the path by which adult religious Jews can learn these secrets. |
 | | Kabbalah stresses the reasons and understanding of the commandments in the Torah, and the cause of events described in the Torah. |
 | | Even in very early times of the Land of Israel as well as Alexandrian theology recognized the two attributes of God, middat hadin (the "attribute of justice"), and middat ha-rahamim (the "attribute of mercy") (Midrash Sifre, Deuteronomy 27); and so is the contrast between justice and mercy a fundamental doctrine of the Kabbalah. |
