Baruch Ashlag (a.k.a. RABASH)
(1907пїЅ1991) the great Kabbalist who continued the evolution of Kabbalah
after his father, Rabbi Yehuda Ashlag. Born in Poland in 1907, he came
with his father to Israel at the age of fifteen. He spent his entire
life following in the footsteps of his father and advancing in the
study of Kabbalah.
He was very knowledgeable in Torah and Talmud, but he never served
as a rabbi. He always worked simple jobs: construction worker, road
works, a shoemaker, or a clerk. When his father passed away, Baruch
Ashlag took his place as teacher and continued his work. He published
The Zohar with his fatherпїЅs commentaries as well as several other
books. |
