Sinopse

Sefer, Book of Formation, or Book of Creation is the title of the earliest extant book on Jewish esotericism, although some early commentators treated it as a treatise on mathematical and linguistic theory as opposed to Kabbalah.áYetzirah is more literally translated as 'Formation', the word Briah is used for 'Creation'.áThe book is traditionally ascribed to the patriarch Abraham, although others attribute its writing to Rabbi Akiva. Modern scholars have not reached consensus on the question of its origins. According to Rabbi Saadia Gaon, the objective of the bookâÇÖs author was to convey in writing from a Jewish perspective how the things of our universe came into existence.áTranslated from the Hebrew, with annotations by Knut Stenring.áIncludes the 32 paths of wisdom, their correspondence with the Hebrew alphabet and the Tarot symbols and with an introduction by Arthur Edward Waite.
