The Rabbi’s Opinion on the Book of Zohar

שו”תCategory: faithThe Rabbi’s Opinion on the Book of Zohar
asked 2 years ago

I have seen many harsh appeals against the Book of Zohar.
Or maybe it’s all a fake and not a serious business.

Does the rabbi know the issue?
Does the rabbi have any idea who this is? What is this?

I didn’t understand the question. What are these appeals? What is the question? The Zohar contains Kabbalistic claims. It was probably compiled in the Middle Ages, but it contains earlier sources. There is earlier mystical literature, so Rabbi Moshe de Leon certainly did not invent Kabbalah. Now it depends on what objections you mean? On the content – they must be rejected. Contradictions – they must be resolved. On the author and the period of composition – it is indeed probably late.
