The original Israelite civilization offered no evidence of having had a mystical initiatory tradition of any sort. Indeed, prominent Kabbalah scholars such as Gershom Scholem have famously insisted that there was no mysticism at all in biblical Israel.
It is this unaccounted-for peculiarity that launched a painstaking investigation, the results of which are recounted in this book. The research sought to foreground what has been dubbed the "second channel" within the Pentateuch and the book of Joshua, a narrative stratum hypothesized to contain ideational and some concrete information regarding the conjectured missing initiatory system of the priests of the First Temple.
The Sôd Hypothesis substantiates that the authors of the Pentateuch and the book of Joshua intended to communicate to future generations the fact of the existence of their otherwise concealed esoteric system.

Secondly, it discusses the provenance of von Neumann's ideas which partly arose from his need to perform complex calculations of the events occurring in a thermonuclear explosion. These techniques should not be used with the idea of dominating the horse. With the interest that Israel's 60th anniversary brings, it will surely garner attention. (Two thumbsway up). It tells the story about an upper middle class white woman who, in the year 2000, attends a meetin
