They were composed between late antiquity and the early Middle Ages, with roots in earlier traditions and a long and complex subsequent history of transmission. This volume presents English translations of eclectic critical texts, with a full apparatus of variants, of most of the major Hekhalot documents: Hekhalot Rabbati ; Sar Torah ; Hekhalot Zutarti ; Ma'aseh Merkavah ; Merkavah Rabba ; briefer macroforms: The Chapter of R. Nehuniah ben HaQanah , The Great Seal-Fearsome Crown , Sar Panim , The Ascent of Elijah ben Avuyah , and The Youth ; and the Hekhalot fragments from the Cairo Geniza. 410 0$aSupplements to The Journal of Jewish Thought and Philosophy$v20. 606 $aHekhalot literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMerkava 606 $aMysticism$xJudaism 606 $aCairo Genizah 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHekhalot literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMerkava. 615 0$aMysticism$xJudaism. 615 0$aCairo Genizah. 676 $a296.1 700 $aDavila$b James R.$f1960-$0875619 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452363003321 996 $aHekhalot literature in translation$91955055 997 $aUNINA
