Question
Hello Rabbi,
Is there a high-quality book that serves as an introduction to the teachings of Kabbalah? Is the book “Principles of the Beginning of Wisdom” recommended for this purpose?

Answer
I’m not an expert, and I’m also not familiar with that literature. From a quick skim of the book, it seems to me to be a very good introduction.
