Cabala judaica e cristã: um breve estudo comparado

Abstract

The present work will address the importance of studying the Christian Cabala and its connections with the Jewish Cabala, being a "Occult Science inherited from the Hebrews". Its focus is to seek the absolute within itself and the approach to the sacred. Our research dwells on studies already done on both cabals, in which the Jewish cabala is considered the most studied of all and the Christian is gaining its space in the secular milieu, in which it attracts as a way of life, offering itself as a means to help people cope better with everyday life. These studies are also appreciated in other areas of knowledge, such as anthropology and historiology, where one can find several authors dedicated to Kabbalah, such as Isaac Luria, Pico della Mirandola and other Kabbalists. Thus, we intend to comparatively analyze the two cabals to highlight their differences and most noticeable similarities, making use of the bibliographical revision as a methodological procedure.
