Could you explain to me the relationship between Kabbala, Zohar, and the Talmud?”
Talmud, the expansion of the Mishna, is the basic compendium of the Jewish Oral Law. Zohar is the basic text of Kabbala study. It was compiled before the Talmud, during the period of the Mishna. Kabbala is a collective name for the mystical teachings and traditions of the Jewish people, of which the Zohar is an important part.
