Path to the Light Volume 2: Decoding the Bible with Kabbalah

The Zohar explains that learning about the codes of the Bible helps us to awaken our consciousness. Throughout this anthology series, Rav Berg deciphers the Bible allowing us to understand its hidden wisdom and draw spiritual energy when we hear it read. In Volume 2 we find discussions on the portions of Vayera, Chayei Sarah and Toldot. The particular portion of Vayera is regarded as one of the most important and difficult of all Torah portions, yet here the Rav devises straightforward ways of explaining them in easily understandable terms. In these pages we discover what a few lines about Abraham reveal about the mysterious stages of cosmic Creation. In Chayei Sarah, the Rav plunges into his commentary by addressing how a simple statement of Sarah s age discloses one of Kabbalah s deepest mysteries. In Toldot, he offers a profound explanation of teshuvah the technology that can bring us back to a new future and instructions for utilizing it to create another consciousness.

Rav Berg was born August 20, 1927, in New York City. After many years of traditional religious study, he was ordained as a rabbi at Torah VaDaat. A businessman who wanted to make a difference in this world, he was always searching for his true path. Upon a chance meeting with Rav Yehuda Brandwein, Rav Berg knew he had found his teacher, and moved to Israel to study with Rav Brandwein at The Kabbalah Centre. After he returned to New York, Rav Berg maintained a written correspondence with Rav Brandwein who passed on his legacy as director of The Kabbalah Centre to Rav Berg.

Rav Berg made it his mission to continue editing, writing, printing, and distributing all that he learned from his teacher and began sharing the secrets of Kabbalah texts, which historically had been reserved for scholars. His book, Kabbalah for the Layman, was the revolutionary step that made Kabbalah accessible to every person. Rav Berg s other books include The Kabbalah Connection, Wheels of a Soul: Kabbalah and Reincarnation, To the Power of One, Energy of the Hebrew Letters, Immortality, Nano, The Kabbalah Method, Taming Chaos, and Education of a Kabbalist.

Together with his wife, Karen, Rav Berg opened the doors of The Kabbalah Centre to all who desire to learn this universal wisdom. Following Rav Berg's passing in September 2013, Karen Berg, the spiritual leader of The Kabbalah Centre, continues their work and vision with their son and co-director, Michael Berg.
