This book deals with one of the most important Kabbalistic mystical movements in history, namely the Hasidic movement, which gathered most of the Kabbalistic doctrines and melted them into one crucible with the aim of simplifying and popularizing Kabbalah. Hasidic Kabbalah was influenced by the Ecstatic Kabbalah (קבלה אקסטטית ) of Rabbi Abraham Abulafia, and the Theosophical-Theurgical Kabbalah (קבלה תיאוסופית-תיאורגית ), both that of Ha'ari (האר"י ) and that of Ramak (רמ״ק ).
Jewish Mysticism (מיסטיקה יהודית) is the quest for an intimate encounter with God, and its roots are deep and striking in history, but organized Jewish Mysticism began in France and Spain, and Hasidic Mysticism aims to reduce the gap between the material world in which we live and the world of God, and to create harmony between them.
The Hasidim (חסידים ) are the Mystics Jews who believe in Jewish mysticism and the Admorim (האדמו"רים ) or tzadikim(צדיקים ). All the Hasidic dynasties (חצרות חסידיות ) are very similar, except for some simple customs and traditions. It is difficult to list all the Hasidic dynasties, which surveys have estimated to number more than 160 in Israel alone, in addition to the external Hasidic dynasties spread throughout the world. However, Today there are approximately 12 major Hasidic dynasties, the most prominent of which are:
- Chabad Hasidism (חסידות חב"ד / Lubavitch Hasidism)
- Satmar Hasidism (חסידות סאטמָר)
- Gur Hasidism (חסידות גור)
Also, the vast majority of Jews today are not followers of Orthodox Judaism (היהדות האורתודוקסית) in any way, and in the diaspora (גָּלוּת) there are non-Orthodox versions of Judaism such as:
- Reform Judaism (היהדות הרפורמית)
- Conservative Judaism (יהדות קונסרבטיבית )
In short, Hasidic Judaism (יהדות חסידית ) is a type of Haredi Judaism (יהדות חֲרֵדִית ), Haredi Judaism is a type of Orthodox Judaism (היהדות האורתודוקסית ), and Orthodox Judaism is a type of Judaism.
The Hasidim were the mainstay of the Agudath Israel (אגודת ישראל), noting that the Sephardic Hasidim (ספרדים) were divided between Shas (ש"ס) and Agudath Israel (אגודת ישראל / World Agudath Israel). The majority of the Hasidim strongly opposed the Zionist movement; they did not encourage immigration to the Land of Israel. However, many of them joined the waves of immigration to the Land of Israel, and some of them founded Bnei Brak, Kfar Hasidim, etc.
The Holocaust destroyed the Hasidic centers in Eastern Europe, and decimated the Hasidic masses, along with most of the leaders. The tzadikim (צדיקים) who survived moved to Israel. Or they went to America and established new Hasidic centers there.
