About the author
Carlos Suares, more commonly spelled Carlo Suarès, was known for applying Kabbalistic and Qabalistic methods to biblical interpretation. His best-known book, "The Cipher of Genesis: Using the Qabalistic Code to Interpret the First Book of the Bible and the Teachings of Jesus" (Weiser Books), argues that Genesis encodes a hidden wisdom tradition that Jesus himself knew and tried to transmit. A companion volume, "Second Coming of Reb Yhshwh: The Rabbi Called Jesus Christ" (Weiser Books), extends this Qabalistic reading of scripture into a reinterpretation of Christian teaching, opening with a critique of how centuries of translation distorted the original biblical texts. Suarès's writing sits within the esoteric and occult-philosophy tradition, treating Hebrew letters and numerology as keys to meaning beneath the surface of scripture. His books remain in print for readers interested in Kabbalah, alternative biblical scholarship, and esoteric Christianity.
