Transfiguration and Mystical Judaism

In today's video, we explore the Transfiguration through the lens of Mystical Judaism. 

A concept prevalent in first-century Judaism concerned the existence of a "Heavenly Man" - or, as in Mystical Judaism, the Adam Kadmon - the Original Adam.

Humanity is made in the image of God, yet God has no image. The "Heavenly Man" solves this paradox." 

Join us as we connect  Paul's use of the term "Heavenly Man" in 1 Corinthians and other second temple period writings to a deeper understanding of Jesus and the Transfiguration.

The book of Judges chronicle a series of cycles - each one worse than the last - that lead the nation of Israel to descend into chaos and ultimately into a civil war. 

The book of Judges ends with an ominous verse about the state of affairs - 

"In those days, Israel had no king;
everyone did as they saw fit." Judges 21:25

We welcome you to join us through this short two-part series about the fascinating book of Judges.
