In the essays in A Sage’s Fruit: Volume 2, Rav Yehuda Ashlag, author of the Sulam (Ladder) commentary on The Book of Zohar, offers remarkable ideas about our lives and the world we live in. Despite the poor state of the original manuscripts, the content and message resonate from every page in this invaluable compilation. Delicate care has been taken by the translator to preserve the authenticity of these writings, and important Kabbalistic terms remain in Hebrew along with English translation.
