Considered "the first comprehensive book on Kabbalah printed in the United States, and the most learned and up to date book on Kabbalah in English at the time." His views on the history and significance o f the Kabbalah are based on comparative and philological-historical research. However, his interest in the Kabbalah was not purely historical. He believed it had a theological, but also spiritual aim. He believed at the time that the study of the ancient origins of Kabbalah would reinvigorate a revival in Christian Mysticism.  Hence, enable a formation of a new theology that would reunite all devided religions. - Boaz Huss Condition: The brown boards are in good condition, the binding is from the Library of Congress albeit done gracefully, i
