Especially Giuseppe. It is plain as day they knew about that, the mythicist Jesus and the rest Giuseppe has gleaned from worthless books.

En Sof even has a WIkipedia page. Who'd have thunk https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ein_Sof FWIW in modern Hebrew "ein sof" (often contracted to "einsof" – אינסוף) is commonly used as simply the word for "infinity", without reference to God and to the above intricate Kabbalistic connotations.

This seems to be the original meaning before it was commandeered by the medieval kabbalists as a name for the divine infinity.Secret Alias wrote: ↑Mon Nov 02, 2020 9:04 am En Sof even has a WIkipedia page.
