The almost insurmountable difficulty that Westerners encounter in recognising the existence and prerogatives of the Divine Law is revealing of the anti-traditional and profane character of the modern world.

Nothing can be understood of the problems of all kinds created by the present existence of a Jewish state if one does not see that, from the traditional point of view, the conflict is one of revealed laws.

In this book the author applies to a particular situation one of the esoteric doctrines formulated and explained by Ibn Arabî.
