Reviews

In this book, Dr. Rachel Elior does a masterful job of reconstructing the origins of early Jewish(Merkavah) mysticism, tracing it to the priestly spirituality that shaped such Biblical books as Ezekiel and Isaiah, then tracking its evolution in Apocalyptic works such as I Enoch, Jubilees and the Testament of Levi, its mutation into a dualistic, secterian priestly mysticism as expressed in the Dead Sea Scrolls, and finally being "rabbinized" through the Hechalot literature of Merkavah mysticism.
