The Zohar is undoubtedly the most well-known work of the universal mystic thought, particularly of the cabbala. Its teachings were influential in the past and today they have an impact on all known religions. Volume IX tells us about exile, a strange and enigmatic matter, but which is essential to understand the evolution of soul. The descent of souls from the spiritual worlds to our material world has a noble purpose, as is the return to the real and full life, symbolized by the Promised Land.
