	JewishEncyclopedia.com - REMAḲ (MOSES BEN JACOB CORDOVERO): (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		He belonged to a Spanish family, probably of Cordova, whence his name "Cordovero." After having studied rabbinical literature under the guidance of Joseph Caro, Cordovero at the age of twenty was initiated by his brother-in-law Solomon Alḳabiẓ into the mysteries of the Cabala, in which he soon became a recognized authority.
		These problems Cordovero endeavors to solve in the "Pardes Rimmonim." The question how could the finite and corporeal proceed from God, who is infinite and incorporeal, is explained by him by the doctrine of concentration of the divine light, through which the finite, which has no real existence of itself, appeared as existent.
		Cordovero not only adopts the Aristotelian principle that in God thinker, thinking, and the object thought of are absolutely united, but he posits an essential difference between God's mode of thinking and that of man.

	US Bazaar.com : Encyclopedia Pages : Moses ben Jacob Cordovero
		Moses ben Jacob Cordovero or Moshe Cordevero (1522-1570) (Hebrew: משה קורדובירו) known by the acronym the Ramak (רמ"ק), was a pre-modern rabbi and one of the greatest scholars of Judaism's Kabbalah.
		His birthplace is unknown, but the name Cordovero indicates that his family originated in Córdoba, Spain and perhaps fled from there during the expulsion of 1492 during the Spanish Inquisition.
		Contrary to popular belief, however, Ramak was NOT one of the rabbis who received the special semicha ("ordination") from Rabbi Jacob Berab in 1538, alongside Rabbi Yosef Karo (Cordovero's teacher in Halakha), Rabbi Moshe of Trani, Rabbi Yosef Sagis, and Rabbi Moshe Alshich.

	His hand did not leave hers until he was grown
		Moses ben Jacob Cordovero (Ramak, 1522B1570) is considered by many to be the greatest theoretician of Jewish mysticism.
		Gedaliah, a kabbalist and halakhist, was born in 1562.
		On the verso of the title page is the introduction of R. Moses ben Mordecai Bassola (1480-1560), who praises Gedaliah for the publication of this work and his proofreading, noting that, AMistakes are not found with him.@ Bassola continues with praise of the book (2a-b), concluding with verse in the same vein.

		Jacob's vision of the ladder to heaven is another text providing an example of a mystical experience.
		Moses' experience with the Burning bush and his encounters with God on Mount Sinai, are all evidence of mystical events in the Tanakh, and form the origin of Jewish mystical beliefs.
		Rabbi Israel ben Eliezer (1698-1760) in the area of Ukraine spread teachings based on Rabbi Isaac Luria's foundations, simplifying the Kabbalah for the common man. From him sprang the vast ongoing schools of Hasidic Judaism, with each successive rebbe viewed by his "Hasidim" as continuing the role of dispensor of mystical divine blessings and guidance.

	Qabalah - Free Encyclopedia of Thelema
		The near sacrifice of Isaac, Jacob's vision of the ladder to heaven, Moses' experience with the burning bush and his encounters with God on Mount Sinai, the prophet Ezekiel's visions are all evidence of mystical events and beliefs in the Tanakh, and most importantly, all these episodes form the bed-rock of Kabbalah's teachings.
		Rabbis Moses ben Jacob Cordovero, Chaim Vital, and Yosef Karo are part of this school of Kabbalah.
		Some Kabbalistic scholars, such as Moses ben Jacob Cordovero and Schneur Zalman of Liadi (founder of Lubavitch (Chabad) Hasidism), hold that the first aspect of God is all that there really exists; all else is completely nullified to God and therefore an illusion.

	Cabala
		Moses clearly wrote that HaShem, God Almighty, the I AM, declared unto you His covenant, which He commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and He wrote them upon two tables of stone.
		In spite of all its Hebrew, and use of old testament scripture, it is anti-Torah and expressly forbidden by the teaching of Moses, the prophets, the apostles, and the Messiah.
		These are not the statements of what Yeshua became, these are statements of Who He IS. He is the I AM who spoke to Moses from the burning bush and on Mt. Sinai and wrote with His finger the 10 commandments of God’s royal law of love, life, and liberty.

	Yosef Karo Summary
		Yaʿaqov ben Asher's code, however, unlike that of Maimonides, omits all subjects not applicable in exile and after the destruction of the Temple (e.g., laws concerning the Temple, its priesthood, ritual, and sacrificial cult; legislation concerning kingship, the Sanhedrin, the Jubilee year, and so on).
		Rabbi Yosef (Joseph) Ben Ephraim Karo (Caro) is one of the most important leaders in the history of halakha (Jewish law).
		When some members of the community of Carpentras, in France, believed themselves to have been unjustly treated by the majority in a matter relating to taxes, they appealed to Karo, whose letter was sufficient to restore to them their rights (Rev. Etudes Juives 18:133-136).

		Many points of Luria's system are not directly from the bible, but are based on Cordovero's ideas developed in such an original fashion that Luria reached different conclusions.
		According to Cordovero, judgement is inherent in everything as everything wishes to stay within its boundaries.
		The first act of Tzimtzum is when god determines and limits himself in an act of din and reveals the roots of the quality of judgement which are left over after this initial Tzimtzum.
