Sefer ha-Bahir

Three years after the Sefer Yetzirah, Hladík offers the companion to his first book: an anthology of the Sefer ha-Bahir, the 'Book of Clarity', the oldest text of medieval Kabbalah, where the tree of the sefirot and the transmigration of souls first appear. Some thirty selected verses, in Hebrew, transliteration and translation, with his reader's notes. In appendix, the complete German original (1931, unpublished in his lifetime). The first of the two panels the translator of The Secret Miracle adds to his kabbalistic trilogy, beside the Sefer Yetzirah and the Idroth.
