📜 Historical context

Rav Isaac Luria, known as the Ari, was a seminal figure in 16th-century Safed Kabbalah, whose teachings fundamentally reshaped Jewish mysticism. His system, often called Lurianic Kabbalah, introduced profound concepts like tikkun (rectification) and gilgul (reincarnation) into the mainstream Kabbalistic tradition, influencing subsequent generations of mystics and scholars for centuries. This text is a cornerstone of his monumental legacy.
