An important and fundamental Kabbalah book.
The foundations of Chochmat HaEmet, rules and introductions for all who come to study Kabbalah, by the Divine Kabbalist Rabbi Shabtai Sheftel ben Akiva ha-Levi Horowitz from Prague.
At the beginning of the book are approbations by the 'Kli Yakar', and by the author's cousin, The Holy Shelah, who praise the book highly.
"It is full of love and holy affection and is a wonder"
The Holy Shelah writes that his words are 'clean fine flour…his sayings are pure sayings, revealing the hidden, everything is well known'. The 'Kli Yakar' writes that he went through the book carefully, 'and it is a wonder'.
