The remainder of the book is a series of essays on subjects such as miracles, Kabbalah vs. witchcraft, Torah's view of the occult, etc. I have to admit I gave up on reading these after a couple of essays. I don't know which denomination of Judaism Gerson Winkler belongs to, but I would guess some ultra-orthodox branch. While I am reading entertaining Jewish campfire stories of the man made from clay to protect the Jews of Prague from persecution, Winkler seems to be of the impression that he is writing a historical book. His beliefs in the magical powers of Kabbalah are so distant from my own beliefs that I stopped reading when his arguments became nonsensical. ( )
