Summary: At last!
Review: If Jesus Christ (or Yeshua Messiah) in fact was far more Jewish than he ever was "Christian", whatever he might have been teaching on other levels probably requires we meet him on Jewish terms. Though I'm Christian by orientation, I recognize the value and power of deeply studying the Old Testament and source works of Jewish Kabbalah. Making the "translation" of Jewish principles into my own Christian experience more than just intellectual, however, has been very challenging.

While many mystic-writers in the past have attempted to bridge this "gap" between Jewish Kabbalah and Christian mysticism, none have come anywhere close to the authority, precision and heart devotion which I feel in Tau Malachi's "Gnosis of the Cosmic Christ". The structural sequence of teachings layer a picture which becomes an experience unto itself! Torah and Gospel citations equally interpenetrate; principles of the Tree of Life, the Universes, Divine Personae, etc. are grounded in stunning New Testament insights I never imagined. The practices concluding each chapter are very accessible and simply transformative. The total effect, which is certainly too much to grasp in the first pass, can only deepen through many future re-readings. This sparkling synposis of Western Enlightenment, I believe, is a reference work for the future!

Summary: beautiful!
Review: This is an absolutely beautiful work that explores Christianity from a deeper, more insightful and mystical perspective, more than anything I have ever read before. Drawing on over 35 years of Gnostic study, Tau Malachi offers a unique veiw of Gnostisim and the Christian Kabbalah from his experience that is absent in many writings on the subject today. An incredible book that will astound readers with its incredible teachings and insights from a living Gnostic tradition!

Summary: Wow!
Review: This is the book on the Christian Kabbalah I've been looking for for nine years! I've tried them all, Dion Fortune's books, Ted Andrews, Gershom Scholem, and so on and so on and NO WHERE have I been able to find a clear, concise book on the Christian Kabbalah. Now, here it is! If you're a Christian who's into a more mystical approach, this is the book for you!

Summary: incredible!
Review: What a refreshing new look at Gnosticism and the Christian Kabbalah! This is the only book that I have been able to find that presents a clear, easy to follow veiw of the Christian Kabbalah, truly a revolutionary work that Gnostic practitioners will continue to refrence for generations to come. The work takes the reader into the basic teachings of the Christain Kabbalah through a study of the Sefirot (aspects of God) and universes, with an exelent introduction explaining what the Kabbalah is and how to study it. and various appendicies that will aide the reader in their understanding of the book. Also very helpful were the meditations at the end of each chapter which allow for a personal experience of the ideas spoken of in the chapter. This work presents intruging ideas about St. Mary Magdalene as the wife of Jesus, Jesus as a man and a mystic, as well as many other characters often misunderstood in the Bible. This is an absolutley essential work for anyone interested in Gnosicism or the Christian Kabbalah!
