“TRy reading Talmud occasionally.”
This from a guy concerned about Kabbalists? Sorry, I’ll take my evidence from the Scriptures, not from the scribes and Pharissees, thank you very much.
“The hand strike carries with it the very sacrifice of one’s life if the privilidge of favor is denied. Look up and read the many oaths of the kabbalist societies. They’re pretty grim.”
Only if your assertion that the hand striking referred to is somehow connected to the blasphemous oaths of the esoterics, which I don’t think you’ve shown anything to demonstrate. That’s quite a leap to make, and extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

If you want to understand the traditions of Israel, you have to read the people that recorded their history.
Actually, that is so for every culture or nation, and in every case you will be reading the Kabbalists.
Your La, la, la denial is making you look foolish!
