Kabbalah/Mysticism
According to Rabbi Steinsaltz, Jewish mysticism - or Kabbalah -
is the official theology of the Jewish people. Although the world
of Kabbalah is profoundly symbolic and abstract, its teachings
are of tremendous significance to the individual and to society
alike. Its influences are evident in all Jewish spheres
- the prayer book, the Talmud, and Jewish philosophy.

Kabbalah is not a separate area of Torah knowledge,
but rather the hidden, spiritual dimension of the revealed
aspects of the Torah.
