Publisher's Synopsis
"In the Beginning" is a groundbreaking essay that at once shatters many time-honored notions of the meaning of our human journey on this planet, while at the same time convincingly establishes a new foundation for understanding our place in the cosmos. This essay, the first volume in a series entitled "Understanding the Way of God," deals primarily with the question of how our universe came into being, along with challenging the reader by presenting some unique ideas concerning the fundamental nature of life on earth. The author employs his considerable knowledge of the natural sciences alongside the sacred teachings of Kabbalistic Emanation Theory in order to reinforce his argument.
