Kabbalah is a tradition that is closely related to Judaism, but which has links also with Ancient Egyptian religion and currents all across the Near and Middle East. Outwardly it was studied and taught principally by Rabbis, but in fact on a more secret level its development was also taken forward by Moslem scholars, Renaissance princes, alchemists of all kind, and magicians. It found its expression in the tarot deck and in the esoteric teachings of Aleister Crowley and Dion Fortune.

Story
The Torah (first 5 books in the Old Testament, also known as the Books of Moses) are divided into weekly reading Torah readings. Jewish people around the world read the very same every week, no matter where they live. Each Torah Portion is packed with the richness of GOD’s wisdom displaying His might and mercy. I believe each week’s portion can be a stand-alone starting trigger point for in-depth self-study and research. Rabbis have been teaching these parashiot (Torah Portions in Hebrew) for generations. GOD’s Word never becomes outdated or irrelevant.

“Don’t cry darling. We need this baby. You will see.” With these words from her husband, Zoltán, Ibolya Rechnitzer’s fear of being pregnant during the uncertainty of wartime is somewhat eased. But in November 1942, four months after their baby, Andy, is born, Zoltán is drafted into the forced labour service of the Hungarian army and Ibolya must cope, alone, as a single mother and a Jew facing persecution in Budapest. Her son gives her a reason to fight, and Ibolya protects him fiercely during the war and after, when she must make a crucial decision that will forever alter their lives.
