The Kabbalah Unveiled: Containing the Following Books of the Zohar: The Book of Concealed Mystery; the Greater Holy Assembly; the Lesser Holy Assembly (Arkana S.) - Mathers, S. L. MacGregor

First published in 1926; Clean, tight, unmarked; a few very light scratches to front cover from price sticker removal; otherwise as new; For over 600 years the esoteric books of the Zohar - the central text of medieval Jewish mysticism - were available to very few. Then Mathers - magician, Rosicrucian, scholar, Freemason, Celtic mystic and co-founder of the Order of the Golden Dawn - translated them in this volume and included an authoritative introduction. This book contains "The Book of Concealed Mystery", which speaks of the beginnings of things and lifts the veil of creation; "The Greater Holy Assembly", in which the archetype of our universe is described; and "the Lesser Holy Assembly", which discusses the formations arising from that archetype. The authentic voice of tradition, this book is essential to the understanding of the 'spirit of reception'. Its magical and mysterious elements speak to the spaces of the mind and fill the hearts of those who wish to comprehend the Holy Kabbalah.
