God Is a Verb Paperback - 1998
by David Cooper
Written by the rabbi who authored the audiobook series "The Mystical Kabbalah", this book brings Kabbalah to a wide audience, infusing an ancient tradition with new life and popularizing its ideas among an entirely new generation.
Summary
Since medieval times, the mystical tradition of Kabbalah was restricted to qualified men over fortybecause it was believed that only the most mature and pious could grasp its complexity and profound, life-changing implications. More recently, Kabbalah nearly disappearedas most of its practitioners perished in the Holocaust. In the national bestseller God Is a Verb, this powerful spiritual tradition, after centuries of secrecy and near-extinction, is explained clearly by one of its most prominent teachers.
Who are we? Where did we come from? Where are we going? How do we get there? These questions have fueled Kabbalists for nearly a millennium. Rabbi David A. Cooper is the first to bring this obscure and difficult tradition to a mainstream audience in a way that gently leads us to the heart of the subject, showing us how to transform profound teachings into a meaningful personal experienceand appreciate fully this great mystical process we know as God.
First line
Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach was one of the great Jewish teachers of this century.
