Honey from the Rock: Visions of Jewish Mystical Renewal [D'vash misela]

"Honey from the Rock" wonderfully opens up to today's American reader the world of Jewish mystical tradition. Lawrence Kushner here reveals the rich variety of spiritual encounters: ten "gates" to religious transcendence. Autobiographical tales, age-old Jewish legends, and biblical quotations poetically usher the reader through each gate of mystical experience, from the wilderness of preparation, through learning to recognize messengers of the Most High, to the ultimate reunion with the Creator.
