Zohar by Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai, Rav Yehuda Ashlag (2001, Hardcover)

I sell this book from time to time on my auctions and love it when people email me to tell me how this book changed their lives!The Midrash is a homiletic form of explaining the verses of the Hebrew Scriptures in a moral, ethical and mystical way. As part of the oral tradition of the Jewish people, Midrashim fill in the details to the events and characters mentioned in the Bible.
The Zohar does this to a great extent in a Mystical way, as expounded by Rabbi Shimon bar Yoachai and his students, a Rabbi who lived during the roman occupation of Palestine (previously called Judea).
In these 23 volumes are explained in a lucid & easy way the various kabbalistic concepts found throughout the Zohar. The author explains concepts so that anyone with a High School education can understand. This is all based upon the works of his father's teacher, Rabbi Ashlag, known as the Sulam.
If you plan on learning Kabbalah, this set is a MUST in order to understand the various concepts of the sephirot, fall of man, sin, man-woman relationships, the evil inclination and so much more! The author has done a service to all of humanity!

I sell this set of the Zohar as well as the original Hebrew for HALF THE PRICE AND MORE for what it would cost at the centre or in a book store. If you don't see my set currently being sold here on Ebay, PLEASE contact me to be put on a mailing list and I will notify you when I get a copy!

Great books! They contain both Aramaic and English. Each Book has an index.
Improvement: There are 23 volumes a general index would help.

This product has brought much spiritual enlightment into my life. I look forward to a lifetime of the widom and light that will come from studying the Zohar.
