Sepher Yetzirah: The Book of Creation

I love books on ancient religions, cultures, UFO’s, customs, governments, etc. this is a very thin little book but jam packed with information.

This review is for Sepher Yetzirah: The Book of Creation, 82-page CreateSpace Mar 30, 2011 edition.This copy is clean, well-formatted, and provides the Hebrew source including vowel points and cantillation marks. The cover is gloss, not matte, and a very welcome addition to my library.

This book is a deep read, for me at least. It holds amazing information. I read small chuncks at a time, for two reasons actually. I want to understand and digest the information. It's unique, interesting, and maybe not for everyone.

Forgotten texts

Two Qabalistic translations in one cover! For Rosicrucian students, Knut Stenring was Dr. Paul Foster Case's preferred translator of this classic text of Hebrew spirituality.Dr. Isidor Kalisch's translation comes with an introduction by an AMORC officer, written in 1948; Stenring's translation is introduced by A.E. Waite. I bought this copy for my own studies. It includes the Hebrew text. Both translations are provided in full. A great buy!

I did not know what to expect from this text. This information is heavy, I'm still going over it and applying concepts to my life. I purchased the Zohar and have been connecting the dots, climbing Jacobs ladder. This is a good read for those who are seeking to expand their kabbalistic views.

I’m not a huge reader, so take this with a grain of salt. It was kind of a hard book to read and wished there was something out there that was a bit more relatable and understandable.

This is a strange book; but if you have wondered about the Kabbalah, this might be just the thing. I bought it because I had been reading some other books where texts from here were referenced, and I always like to see stuff in context. It is a valuable resource in the Judeo-Christian tradition.
