    Content: Secrecy and Esoteric Writing in Kabbalistic Literature examines the strategies of esoteric writing that Kabbalists have used to conceal secrets in their writings, such that casual readers will only understand the surface meaning of their texts while those with greater insight will grasp the internal meaning. In addition to a broad description of esoteric writing throughout the long literary history of Kabbalah, this work analyzes kabbalistic secrecy in light of contemporary theories of secrecy. It also presents case studies of esoteric writing in the work of four of the first kabbalistic authors-Abraham ben David, Isaac the Blind, Ezra ben Solomon, and Asher ben David-and thereby helps recast our understanding of the earliest stages of kabbalistic literary history.The book will interest scholars in Jewish mysticism and Jewish philosophy, as well as those working in medieval Jewish history. Throughout, Jonathan V. Dauber has endeavored to write an accessible work that does not require extensive prior knowledge of kabbalistic thought. Accordingly, it finds points of contact between scholars of various religious traditions.

    Content: Preliminary Material -- Introduction -- Chapter 1 Creativity in the First Kabbalistic Writings -- Chapter 2 The Philosophic Ethos -- Chapter 3 Investigating God in Rabbinic and Later Jewish Literature -- Chapter 4 The Philosophic Ethos in the Writings of the First Kabbalists -- Chapter 5 Investigating God in Sefer ha-Bahir -- Chapter 6 The Philosophic Ethos in the Writings of Naḥmanides -- Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Index.
    Content: In Knowledge of God and the Development of Early Kabbalah , Jonathan Dauber offers a fresh consideration of the emergence and early development of Kabbalah against the backdrop of a re-evaluation of the relationship between early Kabbalistic and philosophic discourse. He argues that the first Kabbalists adopted a philosophic ethos that was foreign to traditional Rabbinic Judaism but had taken root in Languedoc and Catalonia under the influence of newly available philosophical materials. In this ethos, the act of investigating God was accorded great religious significance, and it was its adoption by the first Kabbalists that helped spur them to engage in their investigations of God and, in so doing, develop Kabbalah
