The Divine Feminine in Kabbalah: An Example of Jewish Renewal
"Jewish Renewal uses under-appreciated mystical texts to engender spiritual meaning."
"Editor: Steve Van Nattan-- If it were only the Methodists, in their mongrel unbelief, who pandered to Shakina and Shakti, well, we would not be awfully surprised.
But, many Fundamentalists, Charismatics,
and Bible believers jabber about "the Shikhina Glory" of God. What exquisite blasphemy.
Read on, and weep for us all for letting our minds be invaded by the most pagan forms latent from ancient Babylon and Sumer. "
How Shekhinah Became the God(dess) of Jewish Feminism
"Shekhinah, the ‘cloud of Yahweh’ in the Bible, a synonym for God’s presence in the rabbinic tradition, and a feminine hypostasis in the Kabbalah, is a popular theological image in contemporary Jewish feminist circles. Shekhinah currently exists in many forms: she is another name for God, feminine, relational, experiential; she is a Goddess and the singular image that is sufficiently adaptable for a diverse range of postmodern feminist interpreters. However, the processes by which Shekhinah became the God/dess of Jewish feminism have not been researched. Therefore, this article tracks the evolution of Shekhinah iconography in the Jewish tradition to gain an understanding of the appeal of these images within the context of Jewish feminism’s quest for an alternative to the androcentric Holy One, blessed be He."
