- The history of the Kabbalah
The Kabbalah, literally translated from Hebrew as ‘reception’, makes reference to received tradition, or, in other words, all Judaism’s oral law. With the passing of time, those teachings that were transmitted orally were recorded and available to all. But some teachings were still kept from everyone’s eyes, the esoteric teachings. They were meant to be transmitted from a rabbi to his student, because of the freedom of interpretation that was taken by kabbalistic scholars and the heresies these teachings might lead to. That is the main reason why these teachings were preserved for only a few, but nowadays, even these teachings are recorded.
