Has anyone ever considered the book of Job’s significance in the wisdom of Kabbalah? The number 137 repeats itself throughout the text, just so happens to be the value of fine-structure constant and lies in the heart of grand unified theory. I just thought this is very interesting.

Hi Steve,
Although there are many Kabbalistic texts written throughout history, we don’t usually consider them for modern study since they were written for prior generations that had much smaller desires to receive.
As a result it is difficult for people born today to grasp them. And it is generally considered a longer path compared to studying of more recent writings such as Baal HaSulam and Rabash.

Hello,
I was watching an older q and a with Tony. In it he says that learning Hebrew is not necessary to learn when studying Kabbalah. He also said there was only 400, 600, 800 words you need to learn for the Kabbalah, I am not sure which he said. Is there a list of words somewhere, so we don’t learn words we don’t need. Is it simply biblical Hebrew?
When I come to Kabbalah, does my will to receive try and beat the wisdom of kabbalah with my intellect?
Hey Todd,
I’m not sure what you mean “change the past” – what like if I got a D on my test I can change that to an A? Or, how I perceived/didn’t perceive the Creator in the past and behaved as if there was no single force governing all of reality was something I now see was incorrect. This would be “changing” the past, since really, the past only exists within us, within the present and we’re always only changing our perception of the present, which includes previous impressions.
Thanks!
Why do some images of the Tree of Life show Hochmah connected to Gevurah and Binah connected to Hesed along with Tiferet but others only show Hochmah and Binah connected to Tiferet alone? One image make an upside down star and the other makes a cross. Which follows the wisdom of Kabbalah? Thanks!
Hey Todd,
I’m not sure of the context exactly, but if I were to guess, I’d say he’s talking about the practical aspect of it and not the theoretical aspect. The practical aspect being you experiment on yourself as you take on the advice of the Kabbalists and implement the rule of “love your neighbor as yourself”. You try one thing, doesn’t work. You try another and you see results, etc..
Thanks!
Chris
