Beautiful narration as always. Out of curiosity do you see any esoteric symbolism here? If so i would love to hear yiur thoughts. The numbers used in this narration are ratger common in esoteric and or kabbalastic circles.
Absolutely, I'm glad you asked. YES! These letters are very esoteric. For the common people they were a sealed document. Barely entertaining and even hard to believe. But for the Initiated they were a secret coded texts with hidden meaning. Consider the Section about the tree of life and the Nachash Akalaton....
As a historical note, it is interesting that over the five centuries these legends entertained the imagination of some, the real world produced the writings of Maimonides cir. 1200; Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman, Ramban, cir. 1280; The Rosh; The RaN; The Yaavitz; HaRav Bartanura; The Saforno; Rabbi Yosef Karo, the Shulchan Aruch, cir. 1570... The gap between deep thought and wild fantasy is enormous.
Consider Rav Shlomo Malco. Maybe the Gap between deep thought and esoteric information isn't as big as you might think. For the common people, these letters were entertaining. But for the Initiated they were esoteric documents with coded information in them. Any kabbalist can see the esoteric language in use.
@GarmentofEsau if as you say Prester John is an actual figure who wrote a legitimately esoteric/kabbalistic letter, why did he send it to the Pope? If it takes a kabbalist to appreciate its innuendo, he'd be better off sending to someone who traversed through PaRDeS (but someone not like Elisha ben Avuya, TBChaggigah 14b-15a, who also got into very serious trouble misperceiving multiple reshuyoth when he saw Matatron sitting writing the zchuyoth of Israel...) In which case the superficial entertainment of the commoner has an even lesser gap between his thinking from 'deep thought' than somone who propogates serious hashkofic misperceprions of יי אלקינו יי אחד

I would also appreciate if you can call or respond to emails. I understand that my questions may not be appropriate for a TH-cam comment section. I would like to know which Pope recieved this letter. Sincerely.
You can find this letter in a book published by Oxford called "The Hebrew letters of Prester John" In 1519 it would have been Pope Julius II. As you can imagine, my faith and doctrines are not "Catholic". BUT the Catholic establishment fits into my faith. As I believe it was started by a Rabbi Named Shimon Kepha. I'm a Jew. Who takes the secrets of the Torah very seriously. Especially, The Messiah. For the secrets of the Bible can only be understood through an esoteric Hebrew context and no other. As for the trinity, as you asked.. this how I see it. Come and see... THE ZOHAR BO. 240. The daily profession of unity is a meditation for the sake of knowledge and for paying attention. We have explained this meditation in many places. The daily meditation is the profession of unity in the verse, "Hear, O Yisrael (Sh'ma Yisrael), Hashem our Elohim; Hashem is One." And they are all one. Therefore He is called One. HE ASKS, There are three names here, so how are they one? We proclaim One, NAMELY "HEAR O YISRAEL, HASHEM OUR ELOHIM; HASHEM IS ONE," yet how can they be one? 241. This is made known through the vision of the Holy Spirit. They become part of the mystery of the mirror of the closed eye, to make known that the three COLUMNS ALLUDED TO IN "HASHEM OUR ELOHIM, HASHEM" are one, and this is the secret of the audible sound. Sound is one, and has three aspects - fire, air and water - which are all one in the secret of the sound. Also here, "Hashem, our Elohim; Hashem" are one. They are three aspects but are one.
@@GarmentofEsau I understand, thank you for your reply. I will likely have more questions in the future. I wish to always remain a Faithful traditional Catholic as I presume you wish to always remain of the Jewish religion. I will always be curious, for I worship the Lord who is Truth himself. And I appreciate lively debates and discussions on the topics featured on your channel. I know there is great nuance to history and one must pray for understanding. I do want to ask now if you don't mind, what is your opinion on the Jesuits of Rome? My patron saint is Ignatius of Loyola. Sincerely.
@@GarmentofEsau I will stay tuned. I know already that many were Marranos. I also find the writings of Jesuits such as Athanasius Kircher intriguing because they feature Kabalah from a Jesuit perspective. I appreciate your kindness. Sincere regards, Caleb.
@@GarmentofEsau I cannot accept your blessing, for I do not believe that we worship the same God. Nonetheless I thank you for your patience and kindness. And again, I look forward to future videos and discussions with you. Pope Saint Pius X "Whilst Jesus was kind to sinners and to those who went astray, He did not respect their false ideas, however sincere they might have appeared. He loved them all, but He instructed them in order to convert them and save them"
That was great! Thank you.
