1955 Zohar of the Holy Bible 3 Volume Set by Rabbi Yodel Rosenberg - Kabbalah

This listing is for a complete three-volume Hebrew set of “Zohar of the Holy Bible – Leviticus (Vayikra)”, edited and translated by Rabbi Yudel (Yehuda) Rosenberg, published in New York in 1955 by Rosalg Corp.

Rabbi Yudel Rosenberg (1859–1935) was one of the most influential rabbinic figures bridging classical Kabbalah and the modern Jewish world. A major authority in Halacha, Midrash, and Jewish mysticism, Rosenberg is especially known for making Zoharic and esoteric material accessible without stripping it of its traditional depth or authority. His works were widely studied in Eastern Europe and later among learned circles in North America, particularly among scholars and advanced students of Kabbalah.

This set focuses on Zoharic teachings connected to the Book of Leviticus, one of the most symbolically dense and ritually significant books of the Torah. In Kabbalistic tradition, Leviticus is closely associated with purity laws, sacrificial symbolism, priestly initiation, and the metaphysical structure of holiness—themes that occupy a central place in Zoharic theology.

Unlike popularized or paraphrased Zohar editions, this work is presented in formal Hebrew, intended for readers with grounding in classical Jewish texts. It preserves traditional layout, language, and structure, making it a serious study set rather than a devotional or introductory volume.

One volume includes a frontispiece portrait of Rabbi Rosenberg, further grounding the set historically and adding bibliographic interest for collectors of Judaica and rabbinic literature.

Why this set matters

• Rosenberg was a key figure in preserving authentic Kabbalistic transmission

• Leviticus is one of the most theologically and mystically complex Torah books

• Mid-20th-century Hebrew Zohar sets are increasingly scarce, especially complete

• This is not a modern English adaptation or secondary commentary
