4 The <strong>Kabbalah</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> <strong>Golden</strong> <strong>Dawn</strong><br />

Once <strong>the</strong> MISHNAH was completed, commentaries (called<br />

MEDRASHlM5) and additions (called TOSEPHTOTH) were added by<br />

later followers <strong>of</strong> Rabb Judah.<br />

The Ghemarah was formed from <strong>the</strong> MEDRASHlM and TOSEPH­<br />

TOTH, and simply refers to <strong>the</strong> bulk <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> additional teachings added to<br />

<strong>the</strong> MISHNAH<br />

The <strong>Kabbalah</strong> was said to have been hidden mainly within <strong>the</strong> first<br />

five books <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Pentateuch (written Torah or Law <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Old Testament),<br />

though it is also said to be found in some o<strong>the</strong>r later biblical books.<br />

At this point we have <strong>the</strong> written Torah for <strong>the</strong> masses and rhe oral Torah<br />

which, in part, was said to have been kept for <strong>the</strong> chosen ones. When <strong>the</strong><br />

correct key was applied Kabbalistically, over 600,000 different meanings<br />

and applications applied to rhe written Torah (it is assumed that since this<br />

number coincides with <strong>the</strong> number <strong>of</strong> Jews who traveled with Moses that<br />

each person could interpret a different meaning to <strong>the</strong> Torah).<br />

Tradition has it that Moses passed this Secret Wisdom <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> oral<br />

Torah to 70 elders, which became <strong>the</strong> basis <strong>of</strong> Kabbalistic teachings for<br />

thousands <strong>of</strong> years to come.<br />

5 Some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se notable authors ate Rabbi Eliezer (Jerusalem Talmud) and Rabbi Ashi and Rabbi<br />

Jose (Babylon Talmud).<br />

6 See Cipher <strong>of</strong> Genesisby Carlos Suares (Shamballah, 1985), for an example <strong>of</strong>how exactly <strong>the</strong> hidden<br />

ciphers within Genesis are utilized. Also see Roots<strong>of</strong> ,heBibleby Friedrich Weinreb (Merlin<br />

Books, 1986), for ano<strong>the</strong>r variation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> same <strong>the</strong>mes.
