Solomon

[Nightstrike]

I'm confused here about him.
Did he apostate for a little while or something.
because it seems in the occult soloman plays a MASSIVE role.

 

[Theological1]

He intermarried with many foreign women which toward the end of life led him into spiritual decline and gross idoltry. (1Kings 11:5) His history of spiritual fornication and decadence, pomp and glory are some of the main reasons that he is appealing to the Occult. However, you will find many Occultist today spewing rhetoric about Solomon and Hiram Abiff etc, beware because there is more ficticious information than historical, archeological and biblical evidence that links him to the role he plays among today Occultist.

My friend I am a Mizrahi Jew and believe me when I tell you that the Kaballah in it's essence is essentially non-jewish. The word Kaballah itself (derived from Hebrew root "to recieve") is found for the "very first time" in the work of Ibn Gabirol (1021-1056). But it was not until the fourteenth century that it began to be used widely. It uses principles from the Torah however it combines ancient astral religions and mystical words and concepts from ancient Babylonian rites and many other non-Hebrew beliefe systems. It is fairly new and a potent hybrid religion for the Jewish masonic orders.(That's another topic in itself) Historians Heinrich Graetz(1817) and Leopold Zunz (1749-1886) both great Ashkenazi jewish men in Europe went on record saying Kabbalah is dangerous! It has a wealth of knowledge but when one mixes the ancient laws and principles from Torah with Ba'al as in the cases of Kabbalah the out come can be very bad. The meditational concepts are essentially Jewish and can be found in Torah. One only needs to meditate on the "word of God" but we find later ancient symbols along with pagan incantations are introduced to the student to so called further his or her understanding within the Kaballah schools. You may be familiar with the mystical tale of the Goleim which is where they got frankanstien from, well it stems from the Kaballah rituals or incantations to raise the dead. However in those cases if true, they recieve b'nai elohim fallen angel spirits. I hope that my opinion is helpful to your search remember the Torah or the Bible has untold translation errors to be sought realeasing safe blessings and power from above. Peace be unto you
