The Kabbalah of Tzefat - JTS Exploring Kabbalah

What this episode covers

After the Expulsion from Spain, a mystical revival flourished in Tzefat, building on the fellowship circles that defined groups like the Spanish Kabbalists of previous generations. These communities, which were built on the cultivation of spiritual friendships and master-disciple relationships, developed kabbalistic theology, poetry, ethics, autobiography, halakhah, and more. Elements from this period and place have become well known in contemporary Jewish practice, from the blessings of Kabbalat Shabbat to the notion of reclaiming the divine emanations that shattered with the creation of the world.Subscribe now:RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/3550593/episodes/feedApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/exploring-kabbalah/id1739159484Hosted by: Dr. Eitan FishbaneProduced by Ellie GettingerEdited by Sarah BrownCover art: Lee WilletTheme music: “Yah Notein Binah” from Seeds of SongFind more JTS Podcasts at www.jtsa.edu/torah/podcasts
