Abstract

The Talmudic and Kabbalistic dictates and precepts, accurately handed down in order to create a living connection between Divine and Human, are explored in the essay through the categories of theurgy ("esoteric rituality"), responsibility and the mystic meaning of "Grace" (Chesed) ....By flowing from the supreme to the lowest spheres of reality, Divine Grace (Piety, Loyalty, Love) charges with an asymmetrical moral burden "the initiates", who are then committed to act for the sake of the whole World. "Grace" and "exceeding responsibility" are Janus' faces of the same ontological and moral order.
