Description: Interpretation of pre-kabbalistic Jewish mysticism, also called the Hekhalot or Merkavah mysticism. The author describes the theology and anthropology of the Hekhalot literature, and describes how the mystical heroes moved between the two poles of the heavenly journey in a deeply magical world view that was a radical transformation of the world of normative rabbinic Judaism.
