The Wisdom of the Jewish Mystics is a selection of the most important writings, commentary, and ideas of the Jewish mystical tradition through the ages. The sayings are drawn primarily from the great Hasidic writers, who produced a new genre of mystical literature for laypeople. In his introduction, Dr. Unterman explains the background of kabbalistic thought and distills the quintessence of the mystics’ wisdom. “Reality is the clothing of . . . the Godhead itself,” he writes. “The mystic breaks through [the] perceptions which only tell us about the clothing, not about that which is clothed.”
